LaserEyess 9aa5cd6f45 DOCS: convert 3rd party http links to https
Discovered with:

find . -type f \( -name '*.md' -o -name '*.rst' \)  -exec grep -n 'http://' {} +

All real, i.e. non-example, links found were moved to https. There are
some dead links and websites with no https available which were not
converted.

wm4 2dbe33ce83 DOCS: mention that mpv doesn't build with MSVC
And troll Microsoft slightly while we're at it. But is it trolling if
it's the truth?

The level of C99 support in MSVC is probably a bit better than most
people think, but it's by far not adequate. We need a bit of either C11
or GNU extensions too, and rely on some MinGW helpers (that look like
they're provided by MS, except they're not).

DOCS/compile-windows: remove angleproject-git from deps
Basically just to trigger a doc rebuild, but might as well do a useful
change, since angleproject-git is no longer a valid package in MSYS2.

James Ross-Gowan 51985e3dd6 DOCS/compile-windows.md: update for changes to mpv and MSYS2
- Don't recommend libdvdnav, since DVD support isn't compiled by default
  anymore.
- Take advantage of the new $MINGW_PACKAGE_PREFIX and $MSYSTEM_PREFIX
  variables to make the build commands independent from the mingw-w64
  build environment being used.
- Invoke /usr/bin/python3 directly, since I've heard some packages have
  started to depend on mingw-w64 versions of Python, but our build
  scripts only work with the MSYS2 version.
- Reword the MSYS2 install instructions to try to prevent common errors.

wscript: move install dirs setting to after C compiler check
This fixes waf setting the wrong LIBDIR for DEST_OS=win32 in
waflib/Tools/c_config.py:get_cc_version()

Any scripts assuming the implib and pkgconfig are in the wrong
place should be changed to move the .dll instead.

Kevin Mitchell b29af6a4bd DOCS/compile-windows.md: use CC=gcc.exe for msys2 compile
The .exe extension *is* required. It only kind of worked without it due to the
--check-c-compiler flag.

Kevin Mitchell 717845dc5d DOCS/compile-windows.md: update dependencies for msys2 build
Apparently, you're not supposed to use msys2 pkg-config for mingw stuff.
Also, in msys2, python *is* python3.

Kevin Mitchell f8ec535131 DOCS/compile-windows.md: update MSYS2 instructions
* Use the update-core command
* Add --check-c-compiler=gcc to be safe
* Add warning about potential pitfalls of adding C:\msys2\mingw64\bin to %PATH%
* Recommend winpty
* Add note about ANGLE

wm4 7f313afd08 DOCS/compile-windows: pthreads is not needed anymore
Both mpv and ffmpeg have their own internal pthreads wrappers. The mpv
one has been recently enabled by default as well. (It didn't work on XP,
but we dropped XP support.)

James Ross-Gowan 7558d1ed7b win32: input: use Vista CancelIoEx
libwaio was added due to the complete inability to cancel synchronous
I/O cleanly using the public Windows API in Windows XP. Even calling
TerminateThread on the thread performing I/O was a bad solution, because
the TerminateThread function in XP would leak the thread's stack.

In Vista and up, however, this is no longer a problem. CancelIoEx can
cancel synchronous I/O running on other threads, allowing the thread to
exit cleanly, so replace libwaio usage with native Vista API functions.

It should be noted that this change also removes the hack added in
8a27025 for preventing a deadlock that only seemed to happen in Windows
XP. KB2009703 says that Vista and up are not affected by this, due to a
change in the implementation of GetFileType, so the hack should not be
needed anymore.

mpv can be built natively on a Windows machine using MSYS2. Add detailed
instructions on how to build and merge them with the existing
instructions for cross-compilation.
