Some functions in the msvcrt module are skipped,
and socket.ioctl is enabled only when using a more recent Platform SDK.
(and yes, there are still companies that use a 10-years old compiler)
pyport.h: typedef a new Py_intptr_t type.
DELICATE ASSUMPTION: That HAVE_UINTPTR_T implies intptr_t is
available as well as uintptr_t. If that turns out not to be
true, things must get uglier (C99 wants both, so I think it's
an assumption we're *likely* to get away with).
thread_nt.h, PyThread_start_new_thread: MS _beginthread is documented
as returning unsigned long; no idea why uintptr_t was being used.
Others: Always use Py_[u]intptr_t, never [u]intptr_t directly.

Fix PC/msvcrtmodule.c and PC/winreg.c for Win64. Basically:
- sizeof(HKEY) > sizeof(long) on Win64, so use PyLong_FromVoidPtr()
instead of PyInt_FromLong() to return HKEY values on Win64
- Check for string overflow of an arbitrary registry value (I know
that ensuring that a registry value does not overflow 2**31 characters
seems ridiculous but it is *possible*).
Closes SourceForge patch #100517.
of Python file objects. Added open_osfhandle() (Mark had done some
work for that), get_osfhandle(), setmode(), and the console I/O
functions kbhit(), getch(), getche(), ungetch(), and putch().
