Initial port to Windows Runtime.

This change adds limited support for using Asio with the Windows
Runtime. It requires that the language extensions be enabled. Due to the
restricted facilities exposed by the Windows Runtime API, the port comes
with the following caveats:

• The core facilities such as the io_service, strand, buffers, composed operations, timers, etc., should all work as normal.

• For sockets, only client-side TCP is supported.

• Explicit binding of a client-side TCP socket is not supported.

• The cancel() function is not supported for sockets. Asynchronous operations may only be cancelled by closing the socket.

• Operations that use null_buffers are not supported.

• Only tcp::no_delay and socket_base::keep_alive options are supported.

• Resolvers do not support service names, only numbers. I.e. you must use 80 rather than http.

• Most resolver query flags have no effect.
