C++: Start rewriting dwtest in C++ as dwtestoo. Only the lambda version currently, so will break on old compilers. Only the main window and first page is implemented so far but... the first page works on MacOS at least. Fill in some missing pieces I ran into while porting dwtest to C++.

-- Special notes for version 3.1 --
Version 2.4 has started a transition to Unicode on OS/2. Warp 4 and 
later have fairly decent support for UTF-8 via codepage 1208, however 
there are some known input problems, which shall be worked around
in future versions.  For English or non-input applications Unicode
is the recommended version, however for applications that have not 
been converted to UTF-8 or which are experiencing input problems,
a non-Unicode version of the DLL is included.
