add MSVC support to win32/GNUmakefile
-copy things from makefile.mk to GNUmakefile
-rework CFG_VARS to escape "s. Previously on gmake GCC builds, all "s
inside the CFG_VARS vars were dropped from Config_heavy.pl due to
command line parsing (dmake uses --cfgsh-option-file and a temp file,
nmake escapes). Due to gmake's very poor temp file handling, keep it as
a cmd line and dont convert it to a temp file. What vars to escape was
modeled on the nmake makefile.
