Description

Hi,

I'm not sure this is the right place for this, but here goes:
It bugs me that WP-Super-Cache lacks IIS web.config support, even though this support is available in WordPress Core through the `$is_iis7()` boolean. What can I do to fix that? :) It'll be horror to write the appropriate web.config rewrite rules, I know, but I think it'll help a lot of WordPress users hosted on Windows Server IIS.

I've successfully converted the generated .htaccess file and rules to web.config, which works great.

Research direction

Start by tracing where WP-Super-Cache generates its .htaccess rules and compare that path with WordPress Core's `$is_iis7()` boolean. Use the reported converted web.config rules as the reference, and consider the work complete when equivalent IIS rules are generated for Windows Server users.
