  [config] better documentation for Parrot/Configure/Compiler

cc_build and cc_run really have a monstrous and unusable api, which
deserves documentation.

  [config] add exit_code to cc_run* api

at least with wantarray we should be able to seperate a positive
empty output (as in inter::progs) from a failed compilation.

  [config] refactor inter::progs

do not pass cc around, we would need link also, but rather
take the used values from $conf.
test_compiler() needs to output a result, so that cc_run() has something
to return.

  [config] refactor windows hints for msvc

esp. for win64 with a strawberry perl, we cannot just take the
perl5 provided compiler settings. we need at least --cc=cl --link=link.

fix wrong g++ linker from strawberry on msvc.
provide -nologo
fixup msvcrt.lib with libcmt.lib for _environ access.
allow --link=cl flags also, in gcc fashion.
