[Nut-upsuser] Windows Nut Client supporting hibernate.

If you have some programming experience or know someone that have,
it would be possible to alter the code in winnut 2.0.0b to hibernate instead
of do a shutdown.
I had a look at the code, but I have no windows development environment and
no time to do it.
