NEWS, README.win: Officially drop support for non-C99 compilers
We're considering MSVC 2015 to be sufficiently close to C99 for our purposes, and we now have CI for it, so we can easily check whether any desired C99 feature works. Other pre-C99 compilers are obsolete. Resolves: dbus#404 Signed-off-by: Simon McVittie <smcv@collabora.com>
