terraform: execute powershell on target via winrm

terraform: execute powershell remotely

you could even use terraform as command line client to run scripts remotely (as an alternative to ssh).
- copy script to target
- execute on target
- connect via winRM and a domain account

the greatest hassle: open up winrm, use ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 as starter.
