As suggested by Ray, we should add a note in the documentation
about the ABI compatibility. Because we have no function versioning,
we cannot ensure ABI compatibility on Windows.

I recommend adding this text in doc/guides/windows_gsg/intro.rst
under "Limitations":
"
The :doc:`../contributing/abi_policy` cannot be respected for Windows.
Minor ABI versions may be incompatible
because function versioning is not supported on Windows.
"
