The headers for Windows API functionality are provided by the w32api
package.  The header you want is /usr/include/w32api/vfw.h, but it, as
well as the rest of the package, is by no means complete (e.g., the
definitions above aren't in it).  Feel free to send a patch to either the
cygwin-patches list, or the mingw-users list (be sure to include the above
MSDN reference).
