**Notes**

* GitHub Actions CI test suite added
* Windows not passing currently, fixes to come
* Note that pwsh shell implementation was using the subprocess 'universal_newlines' arg - this has been
removed. This was causing `execute_shell` to return an str-type stdout/stderr tuple, rather than
bytes as every other shell impl does, and this was causing tests to fail.
