For now, we'll only build some of the Ceph CLI binaries when
targeting Windows. In order to avoid over complicating the
cmake files, it was decided that the build script should pick
the targets that are to be compiled.
To keep the build script relatively simple, we'll stop supporting
Ninja, sticking to "make". Another reason for that is that some
targets cannot be compiled using Ninja:

This patch adds a couple of scripts that can be used for
building Ceph for Windows along with its dependencies.
For now, we're going to cross compile it using mingw.
It's supposed to run on Ubuntu (feel free to update
the command that's installing some of the dependencies
within win32_deps_build.sh if you're interested in other
distros).
This commit also adds a short readme, describing the focus of
the Windows porting effort, the building process and the current
status.
