Adjusts the CLI build configuration on Windows to target older Windows versions (Vista/6.0) by default without changing the public header (vmaware.hpp).
Changes:
- Adds
_WIN32_WINNT/WINVERdefines in the Windows-specific section of the CLI to target Windows Vista (0x0600). - Minor end-of-file diff cleanup (no functional change).

Don't add it to the
vmaware.hpp, to prevent any external apps that may require newer a Windows versions at all (if XYZ app is heavy-dependant on VMAware, & to prevent XYZ app dev from reordering headers/defining more_WIN32_WINNT's in their own apps for no-reason.This will be usefull for 86Box/PCem detection testing, as they can only run up to Windows 7 (they are retro PC emulators after all, still considered VMs to me)
