Add official support for Win32

Description

The download stats for the old Win32 port of tcpreplay is actually quite high. Seems that there is quite a demand for it. Hence, I should look at supporting tcpreplay under MinGW or something like that under Windows. First target should be WinXP with others to follow as needed.

Looks like MinGW is a non-starter since Autogen requires setlongjmp() which MinGW doesn't and probably will never support. However, Cygwin does support this and seems to mostly work. There does seem to be some problems with Guile+Autogen causing strange crashes which actually seem to break the filesystem (some files can't be deleted/modified until after a reboot).

The good news is that on my XP/Cygwin box, I've actually got tcpreplay sending traffic.
