Windows: incompatible pointer types 'uint32_t *' -> 'volatile long *' #44

Description

@literallylara

Thanks for this awesome library!

I encountered an error on Windows 11 ARM64 (24H2) via MSYS2 (mingw-w64-clang-x86_x64-clang) and wonder how I should deal with it:

C:/msys64/.../dmon.h:517:39: error: incompatible pointer types passing 'uint32_t *' (aka 'unsigned int *') to parameter of type 'volatile long *' [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
  517 |     while (InterlockedCompareExchange(&_dmon.quit, 0, 0) == 0) {

      |                                                  ^

From what I gathered, this is related to e846d40. When I use the version before that it compiles. Why was this changed?
