Log:
Add information about compatibility with old versions of Highlight
* windows/README
put it here because there doesn't seem to be any other place in the
documentation where we talk about known issues with 3rd party software.
I don't want to reorganize the documentation right now but I don't want
to lose this information either.

+- Old versions of Highlight (2.4.3 and earlier) will not show line numbers
+ for .txt files or files of unknown type even when the
+ "highlight_line_numbers" option is enabled.

+- Highlight versions 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 start line numbering for all file types

+- Highlight version 2.4.4 starts line numbering for .txt files at 0 instead of
+ 1. It also misinterprets the --line-number-start option for those files,
+ starting numbering one number before whatever number is specified. Since this
+ behavior does not affect unknown file types, a simple workaround is just to
+ not pass a --syntax option to Highlight for plain text files (instead of
+ passing --syntax=txt).
