I've tested our support for ucrtbase.dll a bit further by trying building
a handful of libraries with it, and fixing the issues I run into. With
these patches, I'm able to build among others Qt (tested with 5.7.1).

Some libraries have an issue where autoconf tries to detect whether e.g.
snprintf or similar exist, by just checking if linking to a function
with that name succeeds. Since there is no function with that name in
the import library, it will fail and think that a replacement needs to
be provided, which then clashes with the real ones in stdio.h. (Configure
checks that actually include the headers generally work though.)


Thanks for all the work, I've glanced through your patches, most are OK,
the rest should be reviewed by the others.

Thanks - I've pushed the OK'd ones (except 02/11 and 05/11 that will be reworked a little) so the next iteration will be fewer patches.
