Fix Elm linter for Windows (resolves #980)

Looks like elm-make only respects /dev/null, even on Windows. The person
who wrote this linter maybe did not test it on Windows, and wrote the
code in the way you would expect to be solid by using NUL on Windows.
However it seems elm-make is not actually making use of /dev/null but
rather using it as a form of flag. Ironically this seems to be what is
already described in the comments; I added some clarification.
