Distinguishing between "local bugs" and "preconditions" was proving difficult in practice, because a precondition failure in one function may very well indicate a bug in a calling function, but the exception may be thrown through that function, thus when caught the classification is nonsensical. The distinction also was not as useful as imagined. So, I eliminated this distinction.

Add asBytes() and asChars() methods to array classes to reinterpret-cast to bytes / chars, since this happens all the time and is otherwise a huge pain.

Add missing semicolon in Interfaces example

Fix bug where EzRpcClient would segfault if the target host resolved to multiple addresses and the connection to the first of those failed.

kernel32.dll and msvcrt.dll are the only remaining dependencies.

Accommodate code for MSVC
