Request for Windows Beacons

Description of Issue/Question

Scoping/Effort estimation for Windows Beacons

On Linux machines we have an iNotify beacon that makes it easy to watch for an identify when a change happens on a machine and kick off the a config drift remediation process.

But there is no iNotify functionality on Windows & Unix systems that can be used to create a similar event generation to kick off the event orchestration.

This beacon would be a great starting point for many PoCs or initial projects it is also a perfect beacon for demonstrations on these operating systems.

1. Establish a list of beacons already supported on Windows
   Is Memusage supported ? - https://github.com/saltstack/salt/pull/38584
2. Based on Windows customer use-cases, below is the prioritized list of some Linux beacons that would be useful for Windows users as well. Lets scope/estimate for each of below items individually:
   File - iNotify
   Service
   disk usage/log
   Load
   Network_settings
   Network_info
   Memusage

After talking to dev team, it was confirmed that Service, disk usage/log, memusage and Network_info are already supported.
