Use cdecl calling conventions on Win32
The recommendation from engineers within Microsoft is that libraries
should have a calling convention specified in the public API, and that
calling convention should be cdecl unless there are strong reasons to
use a different calling convention.
We previously offered end-users the choice between cdecl and stdcall
calling conventions. We did this for presumed wider compatibility: most
Windows applications will use cdecl, but C# and PInvoke default to
stdcall for WINAPI compatibility. (On Windows, the standard library
functions are are stdcall so PInvoke also defaults to stdcall.)
However, C# and PInvoke can easily call cdecl APIs by specifying an
annotation.
Thus, we will explicitly declare ourselves cdecl and remove the option
to build as stdcall.
