Remove the win32 loader - the win32 emulation layer, as well as the
code for using DirectShow/DMO/VFW codecs. Remove loading of xanim,
QuickTime, and RealMedia codecs.
The win32 emulation layer is based on a very old version of wine.
Apparently, wine code was copied and hacked until it was somehow able
to load a limited collection of binary codecs. It poked around in the
code segment of some known binary codecs to disable unsupported win32
API calls to make them work. Example from module.c:
for (i=0;i<5;i++) RVA(0x19e842)[i]=0x90; // make_new_region ?
for (i=0;i<28;i++) RVA(0x19e86d)[i]=0x90; // call__call_CreateCompatibleDC ?
for (i=0;i<5;i++) RVA(0x19e898)[i]=0x90; // jmp_to_call_loadbitmap ?
for (i=0;i<9;i++) RVA(0x19e8ac)[i]=0x90; // call__calls_OLE_shit ?
for (i=0;i<106;i++) RVA(0x261b10)[i]=0x90; // disable threads
Just to show how utterly insane this code is. You wouldn't want even
your worst enemy to have to maintain this. In fact, it seems nobody
made major changes to this code ever since it was committed.
Most formats can be decoded by libavcodecs these days, and the loader
couldn't be used on 64 bit platforms anyway. The same is (probably)
true for the other binary codecs.
General note about how support for win32 codecs could be added back:
It's not possible to replace the win32 loader code by using wine as
library, because modern wine can not be linked with native Linux
programs for certain reasons. It would be possible to to move DirectShow
video decoding into a separate process linked with wine, like the
CoreAVC-for-Linux patches do. There is also the mplayer-ww fork, which
uses the dshownative library to use DirectShow codecs on Windows.

Some of the code, especially the dshow and windows codec loader parts,
are extremely hacky and likely full of bugs. The goal is merely getting
rid of warnings that could obscure more important warnings and actual
bugs, instead of fixing actual problems. This reduces the number of
warnings from over 500 to almost the same as when compiling on Linux.
Note that many problems stem from using the ancient wine-derived
windows headers. There are some differences to the "proper" windows
header. Changing the code to compile with the proper headers would be
too much trouble, and it still has to work on Unix.
Some of the changes might actually break compilation on legacy MinGW,
but we don't support that anymore. Always use MinGW-w64, even when
compiling to 32 bit.
Fixes some warnings in the win32 loader code on Linux too.

This fixes a bunch of missing prototype warnings.
