doesn't install on windows

[zdi]

i tried installing on windows and got the following error:

$ go install
# github.com/philips-labs/siderite/cmd
cmd\function.go:63:9: undefined: syscall.Kill
cmd\function.go:70:9: undefined: syscall.Kill
cmd\function.go:79:9: undefined: syscall.Kill
cmd\function.go:84:8: undefined: syscall.Kill

hi @zdi can you try and install the latest main commit on Windows?

[zdi]

the syscall problem seems to have been fixed 👍🏽

however i ran into another problem, the build is interrupted by windows defender
$ go install open C:\Users\3xxx~1\AppData\Local\Temp\go-build3424053970\b001\exe\a.out.exe: Operation did not complete successfully because the file contains a virus or potentially unwanted software.

looking at the windows security logs, it seems to be cause by the chisel library.

they are already aware of the problem, but don't have a fix yet jpillora/chisel#279

Argh, thanks for testing! I've just pushed a conditional build change which disabled the parts of the code that uses chisel on Windows. In reality this code is only used in task/function mode which is N/A on Windows. If you can try the latest change again, much appreciated.
