Add MSVC compiling support for make

[sol-vin]

I need a .lib file for Windows. It would be really nice to have make support for this.

[sol-vin]

As far as I got but this just creates an empty .lib with no exports. https://github.com/sol-vin/ferox-cr/blob/master/rsrc/ferox.c https://github.com/sol-vin/ferox-cr/blob/master/rsrc/install.ps1

Thank you for your interest in this library, I will look into this issue as soon as possible!

[jdeokkim]

@sol-vin Could you tell me which version of Visual Studio you're using to build this library?

I just added build instructions for Visual Studio 2019 in README.md, could you please let me know if they work for you?

I'm afraid I forgot to tell you that there have been breaking changes to the API for the next release and those functions have been renamed... (e.g. frNumberPixelsToMeters() ➡️ frPixelsToUnits())

Could you please update your code for the binding and try building this library again? I may be able to send you the changelog for the next release if you need it.
