README is a fairly independent document, and so is INSTALL.  NOTES are
merely addendums to INSTALL.  Therefore , INSTALL.DJGPP and
README.PERL get renamed to NOTES.DJGPP and NOTES.PERL.

On Windows, we set INSTALLTOP to default as follows:

  VC-WIN32:

    PREFIX:     %ProgramFiles(x86)%\OpenSSL
    OPENSSLDIR: %CommonProgramFiles(x86)%\SSL

  VC-WIN64*:

    PREFIX:     %ProgramW6432%\OpenSSL
    OPENSSLDIR: %CommonProgramW6432%\SSL

Should those environment variables be missing, the following is used
as fallback:

    PREFIX:     %ProgramFiles%\OpenSSL
    OPENSSLDIR: %CommonProgramFiles%\SSL

The windows installation instructions were very out of date. Substantial
update to the text. Remove a lot of historical stuff that isn't relevant
any more, and merge the win64 and win32 instructions into one file.

Also remove the INSTALL.W64 file. Next commit will update INSTALL.WIN to

This concludes the changes from PR 123

let's recommend running config instead of a manual Configure.

Also, with the change in Configure, it now knows on it's own if
threads are supported or not.
