Okay. I will add lisp/w32-feature.el (I don't want to add it to
w32-fns.el as this would force loading of ert). I won't add a command so
that no one will run it by mistake, but will add an autoloaded function.

That might be useful for others who maintain binary distributions of
Emacs, but I don't know what they would need or want. So, I'll add
w32-feature.el to Emacs-27. If we need something more generic, I'd be
happy to migrate to that.
