fsmonitor: use custom stdint.h file when compiling with Visual C

Visual C/C++ 9, which Python 2.7 is compatible with, doesn't have C99
support and thus doesn't contain a stdint.h file.

This changeset adds a custom version of stdint.h, created specifically
for Visual C, and uses it when building with that compiler.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
