When building node for Windows, it was always assumed that it's targeting x86, which led to cryptographic libraries (blake2 and argon2) failing to build on Windows for ARM. This PR fixes that. It is now possible to build a native ARM node for Windows, however it will be using the slower reference implementation. It might be worth looking into conditionally using an implementation taking advantage of neon intrinsics, similar to the way we do it on x86.
