The setjmp/longjmp error handling mechanism may fail with Microsoft C++ since
they utilize the same stack-unwinding mechanism with C++ exception handling.
Lua calling longjmp after luaD_rawrunprotected returns causes unpredictable
behaviour. On Windows x64 build, this causes lua_error to crash the whole
StepMania program.
Lua provides the same macros to utilize C++ throw/catch, which effectively
solve the problem. Just specify Lua library as C++ code to enable them.

Update VDI format to utilize 64-bit pointer types for stack tracing.
Revise mapconv and CrashHandlerChild.
Tested on both 32-bit and 64-bit builds to be working properly.
tl-dr: view the Build directory to see.
This is intended to replace the project files that we presently maintain
so that only a single set is needed instead of multiples.
The following setups were used for testing:
* Windows 8 and Visual Studio 2013 Desktop Express
* Windows 7 and Visual Studio 2012
* Mac OS X Mavericks and Xcode
* Ubuntu and makefiles
* Fedora 21 and makefiles
All three operating systems can generate projects, compile, link, and
run. Windows and Mac OS X users will find their compiled binary in the
same location as before, but Linux users will be surprised: it goes
straight into the root directory, along with a symlinked GtkModules.so
as appropriate. There is no more need for a manual symlinking step.
Known issues:
* At this time, MinGW likely does not work. Extra time will be needed.
* The WITH_JPEG option may go away, and we'll just always require it.
* Some linux libraries can use the system equivalents, but that is not up yet.
