Description

In the system technique, we check the cfengine processes, and kill them if they are too numerous and restart them
However, on windows we are not restarting properly the services (with command on cf-execd rather than service management)

Issue is that the process table is cached, so the restart-class is never defined.
On Linux, this is minigated by cron, so there is no issue about it. On Windows, there is no cron, so the executor daemon is never ever restarted.

It is also worth noting that on CFEngine masterfiles, the check on binaries is made only not on windows, as executor and monitor are services, so there can be more than one running

So the most obvious solution here is to remove altogether this check on windows for execd, and controlling only the agent execution
