Real support for compliation on Windows. Depends on mingw and busybox-w32. No need for emulation a-la Cygwin, real native binaries.

-Included here are binaries for Windows.
The pre-compiled library and hyphenation patterns were stolen from msys2.
See https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-hyphen?repo=mingw64,
and https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-hyphen-en?repo=mingw64.
Those packages are re-distributed here without modification in "pkg".
-The license included with the pre-compiled binary is plainly included here too.
-The otherwise compilation was done by means of mingw-w64.
-tcc would have been used instead if it supported linking to 'ar' archives.
+This works, provided a mingw installation and busybox-w32.
+Build from the project root using make win/hyp.exe.

+P.S.:
+tcc would have been used instead if it supported linking to ar archives.
+mingw gcc is the only option.
