provide the deprecated snprintf(). The mingw32 runtime does not provide the
MS-specific sprintf_s(). Mingw-w64 copes with both. So we switch to sprintf_s
but also provide it as a weak symbol so that mingw32 does not complain.

add caca_import_area_from_memory() and caca_import_area_from_file().

inner implementation still only handles one dirty rectangle, but this way
we can prepare supporting applictions for the future.

Dirty rectangles are an upcoming optimisation that will tell the output
