Wire up remaining DirectX SDK paths; build now succeeds

Verified full build with VC++ 2008 Express SP1 + Windows SDK v6.0A + DirectX
SDK (June 2010): 4 Projects succeeded, 0 failed (Release|Win32). Outputs:
Release\rpl4opt.exe, Release\RPL4TOOL.exe, lib\Munga_L4.lib, lib\DivLoader.lib.

Two projects referenced DirectX but were never repointed at $(DXSDK_DIR)
(they had no hardcoded path to replace earlier):

- DivLoader.vcproj: add "$(DXSDK_DIR)Include" to both compiler configs
  (was failing on D3DX9.h).
- RPL4TOOL.vcproj / RPL4TOOL VS2008.vcproj: add "$(DXSDK_DIR)Lib\x86" to the
  linker search path (was failing with LNK1181 on dinput8.lib).

.gitignore: ignore the build-output static libs that land in lib/
(Munga_L4.lib, DivLoader.lib); the dependency libs OpenAL32.lib and
libsndfile-1.lib stay tracked.

BUILD.md / docs/BUILD-NOTES.md: record the verified build, the CLI recipe,
and the DXSDK_DIR stale-environment gotcha.
