Title: [WIN32] play wma audio with native windows codec

this pull request implements a paplayer codec to play wma audio instead with our dvdplayer (ffmpeg) with the native windows codec. This adds support for wma lossless which doesn't work in the current implementation.

I did this primary for learning reasons as a native wmv codec for dvdplayer would make more sense but I guess it could be a nice addition.

One thing I don't understand is that regardless which file I present to paplayer (16 or 24 bit, 44100Hz vs 48000Hz) I need to supply always 16 bit and 44100Hz in the parameters. Either the isyncreader interface just delivers only this format or I'm doing something wrong for paplayer.
