Adjust <windows.h> wrapping to work with MinGW-w64 as well MinGW.org headers,
which define BOOL in a different way.
Add some more comments on what we doing here.
(For the unaware, MinGW-w64 is a fork of MinGW.org, which adds support for the
64-bit Windows target, but also (despite the name) supports the 32-bit Windows
target.)
