Subject: [PATCH] windows: expose reparse buffer types

These are needed for interacting with reparse buffers on Windows.
Searching on github reveals a lot of repositories that have copied these
types, so it would make sense to export them directly.

This also copies a method on SymbolicLinkReparseBuffer from
go/src/internal/syscall/windows/reparse_windows.go to ease interacting
with symbolic links.
