Rust abstractions of random Windows API and definitions

Overview

This project is a collection of Rust abstractions of random Windows API and definitions. This crate will slowly grow as time goes by.

The main reason this crate exists is to have a common crate that virtdisk-rs and hcs-rs crates can use to share windows utilities and definitions.
