    Fix reversed mouse wheel on Win32GDI...

    From MSDN:
    A positive value indicates that the wheel was rotated forward
    away from the user; a negative value indicates that the wheel
    was rotated backward, toward the user.

    Fixes bug 143.

    However, this re-opens the confusion around request 75...
    nigel and DigitalMan should take a look at this more closely
    in rc2 (or an updated nightly).

    Improve input in GDI mode

    This may be a fix for bug 150 (which was reported against SDL mode).
    Basically, Windows will report AltGr as Alt + Ctrl, so we need to
    be able to parse that.

    Since we're here, support WM_UNICHAR to avoid the need to have
    Windows convert to "ANSI" for us, and allow direct unicode input
    (even in "ANSI" mode).

    When SyncTERM is deactivated and it is in fullscreen mode, minimize.

    This appears to be the best we can do when Windows+M (minimize all)
    is pressed. We don't seem to be notified that we should minimize,
    only that a different application is being activated.

    This also makes Alt-TAB behave a bit more like expected.

    Possibly fix ticket 212

    And extra byte was being allocated to hold the UTF-16 string on
    Windows. Assuming this is to hold a terminating NUL, that needs
    to be two bytes since a NUL is two bytes in UTF-16.

    May fix ticket 212.

    This reverts commit ca1ac24888f7a6ffece13c7de15a54e05e4b9a99.

    The size + 1 was being multiplied by sizeof(*LPWSTR), so that
    wasn't the issue.

    Almost, just turns out that CreatePipe() is useless.

    So, ReadFile() will work the same if you don't specify an OVERLAPPED
    structure regardless of a handle being overlapped or not. However, CreatePipe() doesn't create it overlapped, so we need to create our
    own CreatePipe() thing that does open the read end for overlapped.

    Also, fix some bugs in the overlapped bits and now it appears to work.

    Enjoy the lowered CPU utilization.
