[svn-r14093] Purpose: Convert Windows projects to VS2005 format and support 64-bit Fortran

Description:
This checkin is another Windows project cleanup, and also extends our Windows support for 64-bit Fortran.  Project files are now in VS2005 format, rather than VS.NET.  A couple projects have been renamed to be more descriptive (*cstub rather than *_lib), and project settings make better use of build macros.  This will make them much easier to update in the future.

Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP 32-bit
VS2005 on WinXP x64
