SteamworksPy DLL incompatible with newer Steamworks SDK builds

[daemongaming]

Using Steamworks versions 1.5.6 (v156) or higher causes generic errors/exceptions to be thrown. Using a previous version seems to work as expected.

In my case, it generically reported missing dependencies in steamworks/__init__.py at line 91 self._cdll = CDLL(library_path) # Throw native exception in case of error, which I suspect is due to incompatible newer versions of the SteamAPI files; I used 1.6.2 (v162) initially when getting the error, but switched to 1.5.5 (v155) and it worked fine.

I used the pre-compiled SteamworksPy64.dll, and my app_id was set to 480 for the default Spacewar game, to test with.

I just opened a PR to fix that, also includes the new V 164 build

Same issue here with Steamworks SDK 1.64 on Windows x64.

When using SteamworksPy64.dll, the game fails to start with:

Unable to locate the procedure entry point SteamAPI_Init in the dynamic link library ...\SteamworksPy64.dll

It looks like the current build may not be compatible with newer Steamworks SDK versions. It would be helpful to either update support for SDK 1.64 or document the latest compatible SDK version.
