Update glew

Even if you don't need the latest functions, update glew.
SFML's usage of glew conflicts with mine so if I want to use the latest gl functions I have to modify sfml to use the latest glew.
It's a really simple modification to do, but it makes my project undistributable by source code unless I either include the modified sfml libraries or provide instructions on how to edit sfml.

How exactly does it conflict (compile errors? linker errors? crashes?)? GLEW is used internally in SFML, it shouldn't bother you.

I remember before it would always give linker errors when I tried to use glew.
But now I just tried linking glew myself and it seems to be working fine.
Odd.
I guess it was fixed since the last time I actually tried linking in Glew myself.
You can ignore this then.
