WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN define in qextserialport.h header

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What new feature(s) would you like to see included?

A WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN macro in the QextSerial.h file.

This define will cause a lot of headerfiles not to be included from the 
windows.h file.

The reason for this proposal is that windows.h has always been a very tricky 
file to include because of all the header files it includes, and the macros 
that come with them. Some of these macros got in my way on a recent project of 
mine and because of the generic compilation errors that were displayed, it took 
my quite some time to find the culprit.

Of course this also has the added benefit of not including all those unneeded 
headerfiles, thus speeding up the compilation process.

It will basically mean that QextSerialPort will be much nice library to include 
in your project and the fix for it is very simple.

This issue is not valid any more for current version. Before QextSerialPort 
1.2beta released, your can download the source using Mercurial.
