Build for Windows 95 - Githubissues

Just in case someone wants to actually order it…

Thanks to KernelEx and Kstub822.zip, all my Shuusou Gyoku builds up to P0256 work on Windows 98 without any modifications. Here's a copy of Kstub822.zip, since it's getting increasingly hard to find.

However, KernelEx has never supported Windows 95, so we'd have to do some actual work:

[ ] Link to unicows.lib to wrap all Unicode functions
[ ] Set the MajorOperatingSystemVersion and MajorSubsystemVersion to 4, as part of the build process
[ ] Compile with:
- /arch:IA32 to not generate any SSE or newer instructions
- /Zc:threadSafeInit- to avoid any references to the *SRWLockExclusive() functions, which are not wrapped by KernelEx or Kstub822
[ ] Reimplement anything from the Visual C++ standard library that makes use of newer Win32 API functions If we're lucky and Clang's or MinGW's libc makes less use of these newer functions, it might make sense to wait for the Linux port where we change compilers.

-Tom-'s ShimAPI project might also come in handy here.
