PiShrink frontend for Windows users

I primarily use Windows on my laptop. A year or so ago I started using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) to run PiShrink to compress my Pi backup images, which is less bother than booting into Linux. However, typing the command became somewhat tedious, so I've created a PowerShell script to simplify the process.

To be clear, I did not create PiShrink (which is doing all the heavy lifting), and I take no credit for it. This PowerShell script just lets you select an .img file and then passes the filename and command on to PiShrink within WSL for you.

I figured I should share it for anyone who is interested. https://github.com/echo-mirage/PiShrink-FrontEnd-for-PowerShell
