libevent is lacking a scalable backend on Windows. Let's leverage the wepoll
library until Windows comes up with an epoll/kqueue compete user mode API.
- All regress tests pass for standard wepoll
- These 2 tests fail intermittently for changelist wepoll, so disabling
changelist wepoll for now

- verify target on Windows runs tests for both wepoll and win32 backends
- wepoll backend preferred over win32 backend
- wepoll version 1.5.6
v2: cleaner backend abstraction. Disallow wepoll on MinGW/Cygwin.
v3: Add wepoll.h to dist
v4: Make sure wepoll source files are excluded from cygwin/mingw builds
v5: Keep win32 as default backend on windows.
v6: Include wepoll in mingw builds. Verified that regress tests pass w/ WEPOLL backend.
v7: Enable wepoll on mingw when building with cmake
v8: Add wepoll testrunner for autotools test target
