Noah Misch 65a00f3035 MSVC: Test whether 32-bit Perl needs -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T.
Commits 5a5c2feca3 and
b5178c5d08 introduced support for modern
MSVC-built, 32-bit Perl, but they broke use of MinGW-built, 32-bit Perl
distributions like Strawberry Perl and modern ActivePerl.  Perl has no
robust means to report whether it expects a -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T ABI, so
test this.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).

The chief alternative was a heuristic of adding -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T when
$Config{gccversion} is nonempty.  That banks on every gcc-built Perl
using the same ABI.  gcc could change its default ABI the way MSVC once
did, and one could build Perl with gcc and the non-default ABI.

The GNU make build system could benefit from a similar test, without
which it does not support MSVC-built Perl.  For now, just add a comment.
Most users taking the special step of building Perl with MSVC probably
build PostgreSQL with MSVC.
