Don't expose Windows' mbstowcs_l() and wcstombs_l().

Windows has similar functions with leading underscores. Previously, we provided the rename via a macro in win32_port.h. In fact its functions are not always good replacements for the Unix functions, since they can't deal with UTF-8. They are only currently used by pg_locale.c, which is careful to redirect to other Windows routines for UTF-8. Given that portability hazard, it seem unlikely to be a good idea to encourage any other code to think of these functions as being available outside pg_locale.c. Any code that thinks it wants these functions probably wants our wchar2char() or char2wchar() routines instead, or it won't actually work on Windows in UTF-8 databases. Furthermore, some major libc implementations including glibc don't have them (they only have the standard variants without _l), so external code is very unlikely to require them to exist.
