`execa` defaults to `windowsHide: true`, which prevents child processes from terminating child processes on exit [1]. Let's set `windowsHide: false` to terminate child processes properly on exit. [1]: sindresorhus/execa#433

- Summary
Fixes #3251.
On Windows, the
devcommand does not properly terminate the framework process on exit, and leaves them running even thoughnetlify-clihas exited.This is because
execadefaults towindowsHide: true, which seems to interfere with terminating child processes: sindresorhus/execa#433.Other projects have also encountered this issue with execa's defaults and Windows: FredKSchott/snowpack#1022, lerna/lerna#2946.
Let's set
windowsHide: falseso that the framework process will terminate properly on exit.- Test plan
Run
netlify devwith this PR and attempt to exit on Windows (e.g. via Ctrl-C). No framework processes should be left running after exit.- A picture of a cute animal (not mandatory but encouraged)
