This variable will report the maximum number of simultaneous tcp clients
that BIND has served while running.
It can be verified by running rndc status, then inspect "tcp high-water:
count", or by generating statistics file, rndc stats, then inspect the
line with "TCP connection high-water" text.
The tcp-highwater variable is atomically updated based on an existing
tcp-quota system handled in ns/client.c.
Using atomic_int_fast64_t variables with atomic functions on x86 does
not cause Visual Studio to report build errors, but such operations
yield useless results. Since the isc_stat_t type is unconditionally
typedef'd to atomic_int_fast64_t, any code performing atomic operations
on isc_stat_t variables is broken in x86 Windows builds. Fix by using
the atomic_int_fast32_t type for isc_stat_t in x86 Windows builds.
