Link to winapi and windows-sys crates
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
WinAPI provides low level libc-like functions but for Windows.
One may expect to find it here, so provide the links.

`winapi` crate works well, but it was last updated four years ago,
so it does not seem maintained.

`windows-sys` is provided by Microsoft. Official, looks good, but
I never used it, and it is somewhat harder to navigate.

So include links to both.

the crate root, so all items are accessible as `libc::foo`. The types and values
of all the exported APIs match the platform that libc is compiled for.

WinAPI bindings are not included in this crate. If you are looking for WinAPI
bindings, consider using the [winapi] or [windows-sys] crates.

More detailed information about the design of this library can be found in its
[associated RFC][rfc].
