Windows support

So the biggest issue I've got so far is that I can't use the backspace, it opens the help page.
Also, if I click somewhere, it crashes.

Micro encountered an error: runtime error: index out of range

I actually have no idea what's missing, it might even run perfectly on Windows.

I don't own a Windows machine and have not tested micro on Windows at all. Technically it compiles (well, I was able to cross-compile a Windows exe) but I don't know whether there are any problems with it at runtime.
Tcell (the terminal library I am using for micro) says it supports Windows so that's good.

Really I guess I need someone to try and run it on Windows and report any issues here.

Oh well, I was trying to install it right now by just running the make command with MinGW installed, but mkdir -p ~/.micro didn't work well, it created a ~ folder in the current directory (and I've nuked my HOME when trying to delete that folder...)

I'm going to try again.

Mouse thing related to #16

Delete should work on Windows now. The only issue (I think) that remains is #23 but that's more general than just Windows, so I'm going to close this now.
