MS Windows: Backward compatibility for R (< 4.0.0) #40

Related to https://github.com/HenrikBengtsson/affxparser/pull/37#issuecomment-1076865362, it looks like one can be backward compatible with older versions of R, at least for now by using Makevars.win and Makevars.ucrt;

  \item \R now supports files \file{Makevars.ucrt},
  \file{Makefile.ucrt}, \file{configure.ucrt} and
  \file{cleanup.ucrt} in packages, which are used in preference to
  the \file{.win} variants.  This allows keeping the \file{.win}
  files around to support older versions of \R.  This feature will
  be removed in the future once support for older versions of \R
  would no longer be needed.
