Hudson slave on Windows now up and running

The Hudson slave on the Windows server is now up and running.
FtpServer build successfully. I tried to run the SVN build, but it
failed on not finding /bin/bash, at which time I gave up :-)

For the time being, it's probably worth treating this slave as in
beta. I'm sure we will make further improvements to it. Some additonal
information:
The server is a Windows 2008 server. For now, the slave only runs
builds tied to the label "Windows". It got some various JDKs, Maven
and Ant installations (similar to the Ubuntu slaves). It also got
Visual Studio 2008 installed, including the C/C++ compiler.

Also, let us know if there is any additional software that needs to be
installed on the server.

FYI I renamed the node from "hudson-win.apache.org" to
"hudson-win.apache.org (Windows 2008)" in keeping with the current
naming convention [1].

The rename was not so smooth, and required restarting Hudson.  I took
the opportunity to update the install to Hudson version 1.338.  Please
shout if there are any problems.

[1] I am responsible for misnaming it in the first place.
