Windows XP and later have getaddrinfo and freeaddrinfo functions in ws2_32.dll. Windows 2000 didn't, but said functions were supported by the Windows 2000 IPv6 Technology Preview in a separate module. Earlier Windows NT platforms and Windows 9x did not support IPv6 or getaddrinfo/freeaddrinfo at all. Using wspiapi.h should dynamically choose the best possible paths to support getaddrinfo/freeaddrinfo.
This is needed to prevent unwanted calls into the universal CRT in some cases.

This should allow Windows 98 to load Rugburn, although all of the hooks will fail to install.
