iiab working on WSL 0.67.6 [works better on WSL 1.0.0] #3377

Description

@turingtrust

Microsoft recently added Systemd support to Windows Subsystem for Linux:
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/systemd-support-is-now-available-in-wsl/

I have successfully installed iiab in WSL with systemd enabled on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on a Windows 11 host.

The install failed when trying to get the plocate package, but I fixed it by editing /opt/iiab/iiab/roles/2-common/tasks/packages.yaml and renaming plocate to mlocate, the install then succeeded.

I can now access the iiab webpage from the host with the url: localhost/ or the ip of the wsl virtual ethernet adapter.

Could other people test this please? I have only tried this with the minimal install option.

This is my first time writing an issue on github so forgive me if the formatting is incorrect.
