[PD] compiling hidio for Windows

[Fede Camara Halac]

As I said before, I could make a binary with Christof's steps, but I dont know how to debug an external on windows. If you can give me some basic guidelines I can continue with that. 

In the meantime, we got joyosc working on Windows so that's looking good!

Best,
