Winelib aware scons

The goal

To be able to take a visual studio project file, run some script on it, and then have it building in scons and automatically using winelib when on Linux.

Such a feature allows very easy porting of an application from Windows to Linux. Creating a proper Linux package is then very simple.

Changes to scons

The first step is to simply make scons aware of winelib when building on Linux.

Script for converting visual studio projects

Once scons is aware of winelib, then properly converting a visual studio project is simply a matter of translating the visual studio project file into a proper scons build script. There is already interest within the scons project to do such a thing, and you'll likely find some help. Also have a look into winemaker, which is able to read visual studio project files.
