Adam Pocock 445029bb82 [jvm-packages] XGBoost4j Windows fixes (#1639)
* Changes for Mingw64 compilation to ensure long is a consistent size.

Mainly impacts the Java API which would not compile, but there may be
silent errors on Windows with large datasets before this patch (as long
is 32-bits when compiled with mingw64 even in 64-bit mode).

* Adding ifdefs to ensure it still compiles on MacOS

* Makefile and create_jni.bat changes for Windows.

* Switching XGDMatrixCreateFromCSREx JNI call to use size_t cast

* Fixing lint error, adding profile switching to jvm-packages build to make create-jni.bat get called, adding myself to Contributors.Md
