pip install fails

The library fails to install. What can I do?

I have the same issue on Raspberry Pi 3 and Python 3.

@kasperdokter This is the same issue as #28. I might have a chance to try building cec on Windows, if I succeed, I'll make some sort of HOWTO.

@maczet Unless you run Windows on RPi 3, it's not the same issue.

Thanks in advance. It would help me if I can develop on my Windows machine and run it on the rpi.

I've added Windows installation instructions. Tested with MSVC compiler version 19.22.27905. Use pip install git+https://github.com/trainman419/python-cec.git#egg=cec to pick up the latest commits (for now, until a new version is released on PyPI).

Sorry I've been slow on this; I've uploaded 0.2.7 to pypi.
