make avdecc compile with mingw #69

i tried to compile avdecc with mingw but got stuck with adaptions when hitting windows-networking stack.

before spending too much time on this: is it feaseable / is there some interest to make avdecc compile with mingw?

any comments about that?

Hi, although it might be possible to have the library compile (and work) with mingw (I quickly tried once but quickly gave up), I don't really think there is any added value for that kind of trouble.

MSVC is already free to use (with restrictions) using the community edition, and it now has a better support for LLVM (I recently updated the compilation scripts to take advantage of that).

That being said, if there is a good reason to support mingw and if someone wants to contribute, I'd be pleased to integrate it.
