go from 623 seconds to 11 seconds on AMD64.
This is because we have no native atomic implementation on AMD64, 
so the rwlock-based implementation is used, which is  a bit slow.  
It will be probably be optimized for AMD64 quite soon, but for now 
this test case will do fewer iterations.

In the Windows build files, the "Max nt" configuration for some reason
had the mysql_client_test project disabled. Enable it.

Improved definition of mysys configuration for -nt builds.

Make sure for the mysys project that __NT__ is defined in *nt solution
configurations (but not in other configurations).

 and BUG#19208 "Test 'rpl000017' hangs on Windows".
 Both bugs are caused by attempting to delete an opened
 file and to create immediatedly a new one with the same
 name. On Windows it can be supported only on NT-platforms
 (by using FILE_SHARE_DELETE mode and with renaming the
 file before deletion). Because deleting not-closed files
 is not supported on all platforms (e.g. Win 98|ME) this
 is to be considered harmful and should be eliminated by
 a "code redesign".

- make sure to invalidate even if table is not binlogged

  thus avoid the bug

The 250 simultaneous events all accessing the same table caused the
events_stress test to fail due to debug warnings about too many table
waiters. Fixed by using three different tables.
