[svn-r15312] Purpose: Support Visual Studio 2008 on Windows

Description:
Write documentation for building HDF5 with the latest version of Visual Studio, 2008.  The process is very similar to building with Visual Studio 2005, but with an automatic project-file conversion beforehand.

Also adapt commandline build scripts for Visual Studio 2008 as well.

Tested:
VS2008 on WinXP
