Adopt windows version range >=0.54, <=0.57

[cart]

windows is a "heavy" crate. Duplicate windows versions in a tree can add precious seconds to compile times (or even minutes by some Bevy user reports). On the Bevy side, we are trying to ensure that windows is only compiled once. We also believe it is in the ecosystem's best interest (and in the interest of crate owners that consume windows) to align their versioning with the rest of ecosystem. Therefore, I would like to encourage crate owners to adopt the following approach to windows crate usage:

1. Adopt "range versioning" for windows instead of locking to a specific version.
2. Before adding a new version to the range, test that each previous version in the range still compiles.
3. Only remove old versions from the range when absolutely necessary. Try your hardest to ensure that your version support aligns with other ecosystem crates.

We've picked 0.54 as a baseline because breaking API changes were made to use Rust Results instead of HRESULT.

I have personally tested that sysinfo compiles with 0.54, 0.56 (0.55 does not exist), and 0.57.

Won't the Cargo.lock reduce this effort to nothing? If so I think it's now safe to remove it as I think cargo now takes into account the MSRV indicated in the Cargo.toml file.

EDIT: Just to be clear: I agree with this change and will happily merge it. :)

Hmmm yeah libraries shouldn't check in cargo.lock as that makes coordination across contexts like this impossible. I'm not familiar with the issue that resulted in you needing to check it in, but it would be much appreciated if you removed it. Especially if it is no longer necessary 😄

Ah I just got educated on https://blog.rust-lang.org/2023/08/29/committing-lockfiles.html and have been told that this does not affect downstream consumers. So I guess I don't care if you keep or remove it / that shouldn't affect us.

Suggested change

	windows = { version = ">=0.54, <=0.57", features = [
	# Support a range of versions in order to avoid duplication of this crate. Make sure to test all
	# versions when bumping to a new release, and only increase the minimum when absolutely necessary.
	windows = { version = ">=0.54, <=0.57", features = [

I think a few comments here will help future contributors. :)

[GuillaumeGomez]

Indeed! That'd be very welcome. :)

Ping @cart (just saw the bevy release, congrats!).

I made the change in #1326 and added you both as co-authors. Closing this one.
