here is a patch that adds an UPnPManager, which creates a thread to do UPnP mappings. it silently fallbacks to other implementations if it has multiple impls.
i have kept UPnP_MiniUPnPc in win32/ for now - LinuxDC++ people can then adjust it to their needs and move it to dcpp/.

by default, windows builds will now be able to use both UPnP_MiniUPnPc
and UPnP_COM, with a preference over UPnP_MiniUPnPc (so if it works,
UPnP_COM will never be called).

regarding switching to passive for the very few seconds during which UPnP initialization lasts, i feel this would introduce more problems and i'd prefer to keep it the way it is: consider that the user is in active mode if she has selected UPnP in settings.
besides, when UPnP fails, there's an error message inviting the user to rectify her settings; this is better than silently selecting passive mode on her behalf.

Bug description:
Version 0.706.

I have UPnP configured correctly in my OS (Windows XP) and my router (Linksys WRT54GL). eMule, Miranda, Skype, uTorrent all work fine and correctly setup ports. However, dc++ does not. It used to work few times, but now it just complains that failed to setup ports. I've run upnp sniffer, and it seems that it doesn't even send out UPnP packets.

If you need additional information, please tell what kind and how to get it :)
