* Windows: Add special parameter types
Adding explicit parameter types now exposes this information in the
module documentation, and proves really helpful.
We only do this for non-string types as strings, mostly because strings
are implicit.
PS We also make copyright statements consistent and use #Requires for
explicit library imports
* Type "string" must be type "str"
* A few more Copyright corrections
* More fixes
* Don't add file encoding to Powershell files
* Don't add missing interfacetypes parameter
Otherwise CI demands an incorrect version_added
* Small fix
This PR includes:
- Further cleanup of BOTMETA.yml
- Cleanup of author github handles
- Use of proper booleans
- One-line license statement
- Copyright format statement
- Smaller cleanups
* win_regedit: rewrite to support edge cases and fix issues
* fix up byte handling of single bytes and minor doc fix
* removed unused method
* updated with requested changes

This fixes#20595
* Windows: Fix documentation strings to be raw strings
Especially when using Windows paths they easily get confused as escaped
sequences or unicode characters. So by default use raw strings
