Adding Windows on ARM Support

[Reid Kleckner]

Cool!  Do you intend to aim for MSVC C++ ABI compatibility on ARM, or is
that not a goal for you?  We assume the ARM C++ ABI looks similar to the
x86 one, but we haven't gone out of our way to check.  There might be
dragons.

That staging sounds fine.
