- Change tool_util.c tvnow() for Windows to match more closely to
timeval.c Curl_now().
- Create a win32 init function for the tool, since some initialization
is required for the tvnow() changes.
Prior to this change the monotonic time function used by curl in Windows
was determined at build-time and not runtime. That was a problem because
when curl was built targeted for compatibility with old versions of
Windows (eg _WIN32_WINNT < 0x0600) it would use GetTickCount which wraps
every 49.7 days that Windows has been running.
This change makes curl behave similar to libcurl's tvnow function, which
determines at runtime whether the OS is Vista+ and if so calls
QueryPerformanceCounter instead. (Note QueryPerformanceCounter is used
because it has higher resolution than the more obvious candidate
GetTickCount64). The changes to tvnow are basically a copy and paste but
the types in some cases are different.

This fixes the static dependency on iphlpapi.lib and allows curl to
build for targets prior to Windows Vista.
This partially reverts 170bd047.
Fixes#3960Closes#3958
In the current version, VERSION_GREATER_THAN_EQUAL 6.3 will return false
when run on windows 10.0. This patch addresses that error.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/2792
This fixes a merge error in commit 7f3df80 caused by commit 332e8d6.
Additionally, this changes Curl_verify_windows_version for Windows App
builds to assume to always be running on the target Windows version.
There seems to be no way to determine the Windows version from a
UWP app. Neither GetVersion(Ex), nor VerifyVersionInfo, nor the
Version Helper functions are supported.

... instead of if() before the switch(), add a default to the switch so
that the compilers don't warn on "warning: enumeration value
'PLATFORM_DONT_CARE' not handled in switch" anymore.
If a call to GetSystemDirectory fails, the `path` pointer that was
previously allocated would be leaked. This makes sure that `path` is
always freed.
