Slight changes to compile msw/utils.cpp when specifically targetting new API version, that is WINVER >= 4.0.

THe problem was that including winsock.h directly causes multiple defenitions because of an inclusion bug in windows.h/winsock.h/winsock2.h. When setting WINVER, etc. to > 0x400 winsock can only be included by windows.h, and doesn't seem to work any other way.

We indeed shouldn't include winsock.h directly, I'm unsure about why has this been done but I've just removed this as it should be included by the line just below (including windows.h via wx/msw/private.h) anyhow.
