Doesn't build on Windows + MSVC

[quartzsaber]

Installing cysimdjson using pip on Windows with MSVC fails.

It is due to MSVC not understanding the compiler flag -Wno-deprecated when compiling cysimdjson.cpp.

Also, MSVC won't understand -std=c++17 and will ignore the flag (and use C++11). The syntax for MSVC is /std:c++17.

Here is the relevent error log:
