This mirrors the repo tool for the flutter engine repo et.

devtools_tool can be cumbersome to type, so this is a small workflow improvement. devtools_tool will still be an alias for a fixed period of time until we remove it completely.

Fixes #8384.

flutter#8403 changed devtools_tool to dt, but only left a temporary compatibility wrapper for Mac/Linux. We need the same for Windows, otherwise:

1. Any users running `devtools_tool` may trigger the bash script and Windows will ask "What do you want to open this file with?"
2. Using the `dart.customDevTools` setting in VS Code assumes `devtools_tool` so it fails to start DevTools

As a temporary measure, we should put this wrapper script in similar to the Mac/Linux version. I'll update Dart-Code to not assume `devtools_tool` exists in a future version (when it's less likely contributors are on older branches without the `dt` file).
