Not sure why you're using ssh/Python to talk to Windows- you *might* be
able to get it to work, but the native Windows management transport that
Ansible supports is Powershell over WinRM.
"shell" is still a module, so it requires that Ansible's basic.py module
API and the shell module code itself are functional on the target machine
(which is not tested, and clearly has issues).
If you really want to use SSH to just run commands on Windows/cygwin, just
do raw: (whatever command)- that won't subject you to any Python
requirements on the Windows side. But if you're really going to use Ansible
the way it was intended, light up WinRM and use the native Windows
transport and modules that actually get tested.
