Currently, Drill supports 64-bit Windows only.

Revised ODBC doc accordingly. The 64-bit requirement for the machine is stated.
A note says the 32- or 64-bit driver is supported on a 64-bit machine.

> Winutils.exe has been compiled to run on the 64 bit version of windows. For
> this reason, some part of the documentation that suggest that Drill can run
> on 32bit Windows must be fixed. Furthermore, although few user run 64 bit
> windows these days, it would be helpful to make this requirement more
> explicit. In particular, rapid installation of Windows on VirtualBox will
> often result in 32 bit version being installed by default, since it's the
> preselected default during installation process.
