Hello,

The tests fail for msys2 in CI because of CRLF versus LF mainly in
output and sometime in input (and Perl/C differences that could be
overxome if what we want is clear).

Before turning to tests, I would like that we determine what should be
expected for native Windows texi2any.

1) input

How should CRLF be treated in input for native Windows?  Should they be
treated as a logical end of line (the same as a LF in posix systems), or
as a CR character followed by an end of line?

2) output

For Info output there is no need for discussion, it leans towards being
binary, CR is a character among others, only LF is an end of line.  The
output is naturally done in binary mode.

For LaTeX, HTML, DocBook and plaintext..., we have textual output files.
Should the end of line in output files be CRLF or LF?
