Description
Attaching a patch to get things building on Windows, including docs. As noted in the docs, we reuse as much of the couch and erlang build processes as possible. This patch leaves a functioning couch on Windows - with some polish left to be done, but working and tests passing as well as expected - and still works on linux.
Includes a couple of new files - couchspawnkillable_win.c from COUCHDB-374 (while I will close), and a couchdb.bat.tpl file which generates a suitable .bat file at 'make install' time.
Note this patch makes no attempt to create an installer - it just creates a functioning tree suitable for zipping up, or for future consumption by an installer.
