      Fixes WT-1791

      There are a few changes:
      1. Use beginthreadex to allocate CRT TLS structures at thread creation instead of deferring their allocation. This is also better for Managed C++.
      2. Ensure all APIs use *stdcall and *cdecl as appropriate. By default under x64 MSVC this does not make a difference since *stdcall == *cdecl unlike on x86.
      3. Add a build variant to MCI system that ensures we use the correct calling conventions everywhere by forcing the default calling convention to __vectorcall. This ensures any missing calling convention annotations are build failures.

      Note: I cannot compile the tests, and python wrapper with the stronger warnings so I only verify calling convention compatibility against wiredtiger itself.

      Tests:
      Windows with and without /Gv
