svn r52: MSVC compatibility update:

- changed ssize_t to int for libusb_get_device_list (do we really expect that
many devices?). Also in lsusb.c
- redefined inline to __inline in libusb.h
- remove the unistd.h include for OS_WINDOWS
- api/ vs ddk/ for ddk includes
- changed variadics using ,fmt... to ,... and __VA_ARGS__
- list_for_each_entry now requires a type parameter
- libusb_cpu_to_le16 as inline
- time.h vs sys/time.h
- harmonization of #ifdef vs #if defined() within individual files
- defined an empty __drv_preferredFunction(func,why) before #include
<cfgmgr32.h>, as it only applies to obsolete functions
- excluded USB_HUB_CAPS redefinition from MSVC
- new msvc top directory for includes (stdint.h inttypes.h and pthread)
- new config_msvc.h file
- new README_MSVC and MSVC project files
- removed various warnings (signed/unsigned comparisons, cast, etc)

+To compile libusb 1.0 using MSVC 8 or later:

+

+- download the pthread.h and sched.h headers from 

+  ftp://sourceware.org/pub/pthreads-win32/prebuilt-dll-2-8-0-release/include/

+  into the msvc directory

+- download pthreadVC2.lib from:

+  ftp://sourceware.org/pub/pthreads-win32/prebuilt-dll-2-8-0-release/lib/ 

+  into the msvc directory

+- download pthreadVC2.dll from the same link into your executable destination

+- edit config_msvc.h according to your needs (you might want to comment out

+  ENABLE_DEBUG_LOGGING) 

+- edit the Linker's "Additional Library Directory" properties to point to your 

+  Windows DDK (you must have the Windows DDK installed). For instance, to build

+  against the Windows 7 x86 libraries, you could use:

+  E:\WinDDK\7600.16385.0\lib\win7\i386
