Description

When drag a file to WindTerm, the path separator is `/`, e.g. **`D:/temp/abc.txt`**.
**Which should be `D:\temp\abc.txt`**.
A lot of tools in Windows can not handle this kind of path format.

Research direction

Reproduce the drag-and-drop behavior on Windows and trace the terminal's file-drop path handling; the payload does not name a source file or test. Done means dragging a file into WindTerm produces a Windows-style path such as `D:\temp\abc.txt` instead of using `/` separators.
