remote.NewImage() with remote.FromBaseImage() fails on Windows when provided a manifest list

[natalieparellano]

E.g.,

remote.NewImage(tags[0], authn.DefaultKeychain, remote.FromBaseImage("mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1809") (a manifest list)

fails with

connect to repo store 'mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1809': no child with platform amd64/linux in index mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1809

Whereas

remote.NewImage(tags[0], authn.DefaultKeychain, remote.FromBaseImage("mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1809-amd64") (an image index)

works just fine.

Makes sense. I think remote.NewImage, needs a WithPlatform option that we can pass through to ggcr so we can select the correct manifest from the list.

Hi @ekcasey @natalieparellano, I am planning to give it a shot to this issue, right now I am receiving help to create a VM with windows where I can actually have administration permissions to install tools on it, once that's done, I will prepare my environment and try to reproduce the issue.
