Review & commit for svnserve Win32 service support

Ok, after a few initial comments, I've gotten no feedback on the Win32
service support patch.

What do I need to do to move this forward? I believe the code is ready, and
is production-quality. I've never contributed to Subversion before, so I
don't know the process. Can someone review this, etc.?

There is only one thing that needs to be done before this patch is ready to
be checked in. And that is, add svnserve_winservice.c to the build scripts.
I did my best to figure out how makefiles, vcproj files, etc. get generated
by gen-make.py, but it was beyond my mortal comprehension.

I had to roll my own vcproj files to get anything to build, and this is
actually a subject that I want to take up with this list -- the poor state
of autoconfig support on Win32. It is inordinately difficult to build
Subversion on Win32, and for no good reason. I don't say this to insult
anyone -- I'll fix it, given half a chance -- but to point out how cruddy it
is on Win32, and to ask if it's really *supposed* to be this cruddy.

Thanks.
