 * cnaiapi_init - initialize the library. Initialize Winsock (if Win32)

 *
 * Note: All CNAIAPI functions call cnaiapi_init first to ensure that
 * the library is initialized. This is done for ease-of-use for
 * beginners. 
 *
 * **
 * ** Having the functions call cnaiapi_init first creates
 * ** a race condition in multi-threaded applications.
 * ** If your application is multithreaded, call cnaiapi_init explicitly
 * ** before you spawn any threads.
