Add os-win library

Registered by Claudiu Belu

Hyper-V is involved in many of OpenStack components (nova, neutron, cinder, ceilometer, etc.) and will be involved with other components in the future.

A common library can be created in order to reduce the code duplication between all these components (utils classes, which interacts directly with Hyper-V through WMI), making it easier to maintain, review and propose new changes to current and future components.

Made this medium priority, as its blocking all other hyper-v specs, as I understand it. --johnthetubaguy 20151110
