rework the RTL for 64-bit compatibility. This includes replacing the windows header files if possible.

As for the "new" windows headers: Our best bet for this one is most likely, as I've suggested before, pulling from MINGW64, however I cam now recognize some of the issues with this as much of it is either:

  1. public domain or

  2. LGPL

The latter is a problem however if we're trying to rebuild the MSVC stuff, the only other option is relying on a system install from MSVC or rebuilding the headers from windows, the latter of which is.... honestly something I can do, but would rather not spend the 2+ years on digging through the various MSVC docs again to get a type to have the exact structure layout it's supposed to have.
