While I recognize that ADS is not supported by POSIX, I was wondering
what if any support for ADS might exist within Cygwin.

The last time I looked into this was probably more than a decade ago
but I am seeing (unfortunately) more usage of ADS in the Windows
world, so I was wondering if there has been any effort to support in Cygwin?
