win32: restrict visibility of special devices
Handling of the special devices /dev/zero and /dev/urandom was inconsistent: - they could be used as arguments to 'cat' but not 'od'; - they could not be used in shell redirection. Restrict the use of these devices to two places: - as input files to 'dd' with the 'if=' argument; - internally within 'shred'. See GitHub issue #98.
