Research direction

Start with the Windows installation instructions at https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow-providers-edge3/stable/install_on_windows.html and reproduce the failure on Airflow 3.0.6 with Windows 11. Trace the Unix/Linux-specific layers involved in launching and running tasks on the edge worker; done means the documented installation works and edge-worker tasks launch and run successfully.
