Hugo Beauzée-Luyssen 50313aa964 win32: Add a vlc_mta_holder
This small helper will hold on to the MTA to ensure it won't be
destroyed between two calls to CoInitializeEx.
This will help us not leaking our TA configurations to libvlc/libvlccore

README

README for the VLC media player
===============================

VLC is a popular libre and open source media player and multimedia engine,
used by a large number of individuals, professionals, companies and
institutions. Using open source technologies and libraries, VLC has been
ported to most computing platforms, including GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OS X,
BSD, iOS and Android.
VLC can play most multimedia files, discs, streams, allows playback from
devices, and is able to convert to or stream in various formats.
The VideoLAN project was started at the university École Centrale Paris who
relicensed VLC under the GPLv2 license in February 2001. Since then, VLC has
been downloaded close to one billion times.
