Subject: [PATCH] [libcxx] Add cast to avoid pointer casting warning on Windows

This avoids the following build time warning, when building with
the latest nightly Clang:

    warning: cast from 'FARPROC' (aka 'int (*)() __attribute__((stdcall))') to
    'GetSystemTimeAsFileTimePtr' (aka 'void (*)(_FILETIME *) __attribute__((stdcall))')
    converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-mismatch]

This warning seems to have appeared since Clang commit
999d4f840777bf8de26d45947192aa0728edc0fb, which restructured.

The GetProcAddress function returns a FARPROC type, which is
"int (WINAPI *)()". Directly casting this to another function pointer
type triggers this warning, but casting to a void* inbetween
avoids this issue. (On Unix-like platforms, dlsym returns a
"void*", which doesn't exhibit this casting problem.)
