Windows, *NIX

Description

This patch adds support for Windows 64-bit builds by using std::ptrdiff_t to represent Windows' pipe HANDLE. It also restores cross-platform *NIX support that was broken in ~~THRIFT-1690~~.

See contrib/transport-sample for a working cross-platform example of how to use TPipe[Server]. I tested all permutations of Win32/64-bit clients with Win32/64-bit servers and they were happy. Also tested successfully on OSX.
