This pull request updates the README to include detailed, Windows-specific installation instructions. The changes are intended to help Windows users successfully build and install L4CasADi without encountering common pitfalls such as using an unsupported compiler or running into file path length issues. Key additions include:
Windows Prerequisites:
Guidance on installing CMake and Visual C++ Build Tools instead of a GCC compiler.
PATH Configuration:
Instructions to ensure both CMake and the Visual C++ Build Tools are correctly added to the system PATH.
File Path Length Considerations:
A note to avoid overly long directory paths during the build process to prevent Windows path length limitations.
These modifications aim to streamline the setup process for Windows users, improving overall user experience and reducing installation errors on that platform. Please review and merge if acceptable.
