yarn-audit-fix is broken on Windows due to recent Node.js security fix

[cliffAtOsaic]

Description

A recent security update in Node prevents execution of shell/batch scripts. See https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/april-2024-security-releases-2.

The fix is to call spawnSync with the parameter { shell: true } on Windows.

I am working on a fix for this; only putting it here to document the issue.

Test cases are actually failing with this error which is good. Tests are working :)
