Fix GetThreadContext stale register values use if WoW64 (Win32)

Issue #262 (bdwgc).

* misc.c [MSWIN32 && !MSWINRT_FLAVOR && !MSWIN_XBOX1]
(GC_win32_MessageBoxA): Do not define unless SMALL_CONFIG.
* misc.c [MSWIN32 && !_WIN64 && GC_WIN32_THREADS && CHECK_NOT_WOW64]
(GC_init): Do not call IsWow64Process() and GC_win32_MessageBoxA().
* win32_threads.c [I386] (isWow64): New static variable.
* win32_threads.c [I386] (GC_push_stack_for): If isWow64 then set also
CONTEXT_EXCEPTION_REQUEST and CONTEXT_SEGMENTS bits in ContextFlags;
if isWow64, and CONTEXT_EXCEPTION_REPORTING and
CONTEXT_EXCEPTION_ACTIVE are set on return from GetThreadContext then
call GetThreadSelectorEntry and use StackLimit of FS selector to set
sp local variable (instead of context.Esp); add comment.
* win32_threads.c [I386 && DEBUG_THREADS] (GC_push_stack_for): Call
GC_log_printf() to report TIB stack limit/base and the case when
CONTEXT_EXCEPTION_REQUEST is not supported.
* win32_threads.c [I386] (GC_thr_init): Set isWow64 by IsWow64Process()
if the later is available.
