      Bug#41218 -  Windows port for thread pooling
      
      * add porting stuff (Win32-Code subdirectory )from libevent distribution
      * add libevent library to CMake build
      * adopt code in scheduler
       Replace pipes that were used as communication mechanism with libevent with
      sockets.  libevent cannot work with pipes on Windows - this is a limitation 
      of Winsock's select().
