NMake Makefiles: Add targets to ease build from GIT checkouts

This will enable one to generate the following files:

MSVC_NMake/glibmm/glibmmconfig.h
MSVC_NMake/glibmm/glibmm.rc
MSVC_NMake/giomm/giommconfig.h
MSVC_NMake/giomm/giomm.rc

when building from a GIT checkout.

This will also enable one to generate the following files:
tools/gmmproc
tools/generate_wrap_init.pl

from a GIT checkout or from a source tree unpacked from a release tarball so
that one can use these to build directly from a GIT checkout using NMake,
or to have gmmproc and generate_wrap_init.pl ready to use to build other
-mm libraries.
