Win: Add IS_WIN8PLUS macro and disable DW_FCF_COMPOSITION for Windows 8 and higher.
The method used in Vista and Windows 7 to control what is drawn as glass has adverse
side effects on Windows 8 and 10. Mouse clicks on what would be "glass" passed through
to underlying windows due to the use of LWA_COLORKEY to specify transparency color.
Additionally the glass effect has been removed. Glass was the main reason for
implementing DW_FCF_COMPOSITION so just ignore the flag on Windows 8 and higher.
