add a rough implement of get_mouse_pos on Windows #5

Hmmm... As I understand it can be implemented with defold functionality, no? |

@AGulev you are right, i did not notice that, i will close it |

We actually do need system get_mouse_pos because we need to be able to detect if the mouse cursor is hovering over the title bar on Windows and if the mouse cursor is disabled then temporarily enable it because otherwise it will remain invisible which is bad for user usability because custom graphic cursors can't be drawn above Window title. Defold ignores input directly outside of its viewport, and doesn't report action/mouse positions in the titlebar. It would also be useful to be able to detect when the mouse is actually outside of the game window, such as accurately updating graphical custom cursor images, because otherwise they would only update when the actual pointer is within the game viewport. |

merged, it just return the position on screen now |
a rough way to get mouse position, so that we can use this for custom cursor.
There is a precision issue, as the Windows api GetWindowRect returns the positions in pixels, we need a better way to improve this.
And I'm not sure about the performance to call win32 api per frame.
