improve windows support

[ptrthomas]

we've already had 2 reports of this process not working on windows

karatelabs/karate-npm#1
karatelabs/karate-npm#2

at the very least we need a way to show a log of some sort when the install fails

any creative options to get this possible on windows would be great !

a user has confirmed that a manual install on windows serves as a work-around: karatelabs/karate-npm#2 (comment)

I check the url for maven => https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/
But there is karate or karate-core folder in it.
