Re: [libmicrohttpd] Remove plibc?

[Evgeny Grin]

Good!
So, to remove plibc form code we need:
* implement simplified errnoFromLastErr()
* add _win_recv, _win_send, _win_accept, _win_socket, _win_setsockopt, 
_win_bind and _win_listen to MHD.
And all of them will be
{
_type ret = func();
errnoFromLastErr();
return ret;
}
For compilers with inline support they can be inlined.

* add simplified implementation of _win_socketpair(). I'd name it MHD_pipe and 
remove #ifdef from code.
* add very simplified implementation of _win_strerror(): it must process only 
winsock specific errors and call host strerror() for rest of errors.
* add native Win32 parts to memorypool.c

Is implementation of select() really required? Isn't simple wrapper enough?

I created public repo to work on this task: 
https://github.com/Karlson2k/libmicrohttpd/ (branch 
https://github.com/Karlson2k/libmicrohttpd/tree/remove_plibc)
LRN and grothoff have write access to this repo.
We can start by removing not used already functions/wrappers.
