Summary
While attempting to build google/benchmark with cmake for a Windows UWP (Universal Windows Platform) target the following errors can be observed.
These symbols are disabled/undefined by VersionHelper.h:18 -- #if WINAPI_FAMILY_PARTITION(WINAPI_PARTITION_DESKTOP)
Yet required in the sysinfo.cc:526 -- #elif defined BENCHMARK_OS_WINDOWS block.
Steps to reproduce
The above can be reproduced (so long as you have VS2017 or can compile with the MSVC v141 toolchain) with the following steps:
$ git clone https://github.com/google/benchmark.git
$ cd benchmark
$ mkdir -p build && cd build
$ cmake -G "Visual Studio 15" -DBENCHMARK_ENABLE_GTEST_TESTS=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=WindowsStore -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=10.0 ..
Note: the CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME/VERSION settings drive the cmake config step for UWP apps
Then open the .sln in build/ and run a build.

Alternative
The frequency estimation in the block in question is sampling/inferring the MHz of the system (presumably for performance measures). As this particular block is platform(Windows Specific) wouldn't usage of the QueryPerformanceFreq() API (windows.h) be more appropriate/accurate ?
Happy to try and submit a PR for this if our thinking on this is correct and acceptable.
