How to prove this identity $\pi=\sum\limits_{k=-\infty}^{\infty}\left(\frac{\sin(k)}{k}\right)^{2}\;$?
Find a function whose Fourier coefficients are $\sin{k}/k$. Then evaluate the integral of the square of that function.
To wit, let
$$f(x) = \begin{cases} \pi & |x|<1\\0&|x|>1 \end{cases}$$
Then, if
$$f(x) = \sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty} c_k e^{i k x}$$
then
$$c_k = \frac{1}{2 \pi} \int_{-\pi}^{\pi} dx \: f(x) e^{i k x} = \frac{\sin{k}}{k}$$
By Parseval's Theorem:
$$\sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\sin^2{k}}{k^2} = \frac{1}{2 \pi} \int_{-\pi}^{\pi} dx \: |f(x)|^2 = \frac{1}{2 \pi} \int_{-1}^{1} dx \: \pi^2 = \pi $$
ADDENDUM
This result is easily generalizable to
$$\sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\sin^2{a k}}{k^2} = \pi\, a$$
where $a \in[0,\pi)$, using the function
$$f(x) = \begin{cases} \pi & |x|<a\\0&|x|>a \end{cases}$$
Assume $a\in\left[0,\frac\pi2\right]$.
An integral $$ \begin{align} \int_0^a\frac{\sin(2kx)}{k}\mathrm{d}x &=\int_0^a\frac{2\sin(kx)}{k^2}\mathrm{d}\sin(kx)\\ &=\left.\frac{\sin^2(kx)}{k^2}\right]_0^a\\ &=\frac{\sin^2(ka)}{k^2}\tag{1} \end{align} $$ and a sum $$ \begin{align} \sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{\sin(2kx)}{k} &=\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{e^{i2kx}-e^{-i2kx}}{2ik}\\ &=\frac1{2i}\left(-\log(1-e^{i2x})+\log(1-e^{-i2x})\right)\\ &=\frac1{2i}\log(-e^{-i2x})\\[4pt] &=\frac\pi2-x\quad\text{for }x\in\left(0,\pi\right)\tag{2} \end{align} $$ Putting $(1)$ and $(2)$ together $$ \begin{align} \sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{\sin^2(ka)}{k^2} &=\int_0^a\left(\frac\pi2-x\right)\,\mathrm{d}x\\ &=\frac\pi2a-\frac{a^2}2\tag{3} \end{align} $$ If we take $\dfrac{\sin(ka)}{ka}=1$ when $k=0$, we get the answer to the question using $a=1$: $$ \sum_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}\left(\frac{\sin(ka)}{ka}\right)^2=\frac\pi a\tag{4} $$
Application to a Riemann Sum
If we multiply $(4)$ by $a$ and set $a=\frac1n$, we get $$ \sum_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}\frac{\sin^2(k/n)}{(k/n)^2}\frac1n=\pi\tag{5} $$ $(5)$ is a Riemann sum which shows that $$ \int_{-\infty}^\infty\frac{\sin^2(x)}{x^2}\,\mathrm{d}x=\pi\tag{6} $$
First Power of Sinc
We can also use $(2)$ at $x=\frac a2$, assuming $\frac{\sin(ka)}{ka}=1$ when $k=0$, to get $$ \sum_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}\frac{\sin(ka)}{ka}=\frac\pi a\tag{7} $$ Again, multiplying $(7)$ by $a$ and letting $a=\frac1n$, we get $$ \sum_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}\frac{\sin(k/n)}{k/n}\frac1n=\pi\tag{8} $$ and $(8)$ is a Riemann sum which shows that $$ \int_{-\infty}^\infty\frac{\sin(x)}{x}\,\mathrm{d}x=\pi\tag{9} $$
I'll try to tackle the sum for general powers of $\operatorname{sinc}{x}$. It seems that the general formula is $$ \begin{align} \sum_{m = -\infty}^\infty& \left(\frac{\sin{(m)}}{m}\right)^n \tag{0}\\ & = \frac{(-1)^{n}\pi}{2^{n}(n-1)!}\sum_{\ell = -\lfloor n/(2\pi)\rfloor}^{\lfloor n/(2\pi)\rfloor}\left(\sum_{k = 0}^n(-1)^k{n\choose k} (2\pi \ell - n+2k)^{n-1}\operatorname{sign}(2\pi \ell-n+2k)\right). \end{align} $$
Before I get into that, I'm going to give another solution to the problem posed originally in the question. I'll use the Poisson summation formula, namely, $$ \sum_{n = -\infty}^\infty f(x+n) = \sum_{\ell = -\infty}^\infty \hat{f}(2\pi \ell) e^{2\pi i \ell x}. $$ Here $f$ is a function with reasonable regularity and decay properties, and $$ \hat{f}(t) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x)e^{-itx}\,dx $$ is the Fourier transform of $f$. The idea is of course to take take $f(x) = \operatorname{sinc}^2{x}$.
I'm going to start by proving directly that $$ \begin{align} \int_{-\infty}^\infty (\operatorname{sinc}{x})^2e^{-itx}\,dx = \int_{-\infty}^\infty \left(\frac{\sin{x}}{x}\right)^2e^{-itx}\,dx = \frac{\pi}{4}(|x-2| + |x+2| - 2|x|). \tag{1} \end{align} $$ The right hand side is just a concise expression (that happens to be suggestive of the general situation) for the triangle-shaped function that is $\pi(1-|x|/2)$ when $|x| < 2$ and $0$ otherwise. An application of the Poisson summation formula referenced above then gives $$ \sum_{n = - \infty}^\infty \left(\frac{\sin{(x+n)}}{x+n}\right)^2 = \pi, $$ for all $x \in \mathbb{R}$. Taking $x = 0$ will give the result you seek.
To prove the identity $(1)$, write $$ \operatorname{sinc}{x} = \frac{\sin{x}}{x} = \frac{1}{2}\int_{-1}^1 e^{-ixt}\,dt = \hat{g}(x), $$ where $g = (1/2)\chi_{[-1,1]}$ is one half times the characteristic function of the interval $[-1,1]$. The Fourier transform converts convolution to multiplication, so $$ \widehat{g*g}(x) = \left(\frac{\sin{x}}{x}\right)^2. $$ The right-hand side (the square of $\operatorname{sinc}{x}$) is integrable, so an application of the Fourier inversion formula gives us $$ \int_{-\infty}^\infty \left(\frac{\sin{x}}{x}\right)^2e^{itx}\,dx = 2\pi (g*g)(t) = \frac{\pi}{2}\int_{-\infty}^\infty \chi_{[-1,1]}(t-y)\chi_{[-1,1]}(y)\,dy. $$ The evaluation of the integral on the right is straightforward (but a little tedious), and it gives us $(1)$.
The method just used to prove the identity $(1)$ has the benefit of being elementary, and does generalize to higher powers of $\operatorname{sinc}{x}$ (in the sense that $(-1)^n2\pi$ times the $n$-fold convolution of $(1/2)\chi_{[-1,1]}$ with itself is the Fourier transform of $\operatorname{sinc}{x}$ raised to the $n$th power) but unfortunately the computations become quite involved. Thus, I'll use another method, one that requires some basic knowledge of distribution theory, to prove—for positive integers $n$—that $$ \begin{align} \widehat{\operatorname{sinc}^n}{(x)} &= \int_{-\infty}^\infty \left(\frac{\sin{t}}{t}\right)^ne^{-ixt}\,dt \\ & = \frac{(-1)^n\pi}{2^{n}(n-1)!}\sum_{k = 0}^n(-1)^k{n\choose k} (x - n+2k)^{n-1}\operatorname{sign}(x-n+2k). \tag{2} \end{align} $$ Applying the Poisson summation formula to this identity leads to $(0)$—almost. I still have to explain why the upper and lower bounds of summation in the right hand side of $(0)$ are finite, which I'll do now. Since $(2)$ is equal to a constant multiple of the $n$-fold composition of $\chi_{[-1,1]}$ with itself, it is supported in $[-n,n]$. (This can also be seen directly.) Therefore, in the right hand side of the Poisson summation formula, we need only sum over those indices $\ell$ satisfying $|\ell|<n/2\pi$. This is where the upper and lower bounds come from in the equation $(0)$.
So all that remains is to prove the equation $(2)$. Let me briefly outline the tools we'll need. Let $\mathscr{S} = \mathscr{S}(\mathbb{R})$ denote the Schwartz space on $\mathbb{R}$. Let $u_n : \mathscr{S} \to \mathbb R$ be the distribution defined for $\varphi \in \mathscr{S}$ by $$ u_n(\varphi) = \lim_{\epsilon \to 0^+}\int_{|x|>\epsilon} \frac{\varphi(x) - \sum_{k=0}^{n-2}\varphi^{(k)}(0)x^k/k!}{x^n}\,dx. $$ Basically, $u_n$ is the distribution best resembling the function $x^{-n}$. In fact, if $h$ is a smooth function that vanishes to order $n$ at the origin, then the distribution $h\cdot u_n$ is equal to the function $h(x)/x^n$. As one would expect from the relation $\partial^k x^{-1} = (-1)^{k}k! x^{-k-1}$, the $k$th distributional derivative of $u_1$ is given by $\partial^ku_1 = (-1)^kk!\, u_{k+1}$. This is all proved straightforwardly.
It turns out that $$ \hat{u}_1(t) = -i\pi \operatorname{sign}(t), $$ where $\operatorname{sign}(t)$ is the usual sign function that returns $0$ when $t = 0$ and $t/|t|$ otherwise. (This can be proved by regarding $\operatorname{sign}(t)$ as a limit $\lim_{k\to \infty} \chi_{(0,k]}(t) - \chi_{[-k,0)}(t)$, taking the distributional limit of the Fourier transforms, and then applying the inverse Fourier transform.) Now, for any distribution $v$, one has $$ \widehat{\partial^k v} = (it)^k \hat{v}. $$ Thus, using $u_n = (-1)^{n-1}(n-1)!^{-1}\partial^{n-1} u_1$, $$ \hat{u}_n(t) = \frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{(n-1)!}\widehat{\partial^n u_1}(t) = \frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{(n-1)!}(it)^{n-1}\hat{u}_1(t) = \frac{(-1)^{n}i^n\pi}{(n-1)!}t^{n-1} \operatorname{sign}(t). \tag{3} $$ Finally, another property of the Fourier transform dictates that $$ \widehat{e^{ihx}u_n}(t) = \hat{u}_n(x-h). \tag{4} $$ We're now prepared to evaluate the Fourier transform of $(\operatorname{sinc}{x})^n$.
Since $(\sin{x})^n$ vanishes to order $n$ at the origin, we have $$ (\operatorname{sinc}{x})^n = (\sin{x})^n x^{-n} = (\sin{x})^nu_n $$ as distributions. If we now expand $(\sin{x})^n$ into powers of $e^{ix}$, we get $$ (\sin{x})^nu_n = \frac{1}{(2i)^n} \sum_{k = 0}^n(-1)^k{n\choose k}e^{i(n-2k)x}u_n. $$ Taking the term-wise Fourier transform of the right hand side and inserting the formulas $(3)$ and $(4)$, we arrive at $$ \begin{align} \widehat{\operatorname{sinc}^n}\,(t) &= \frac{1}{(2i)^n} \sum_{k = 0}^n(-1)^k{n\choose k}\widehat{e^{i(n-2k)x}u_n}(t) \\ & = \frac{1}{(2i)^n} \sum_{k = 0}^n(-1)^k{n\choose k}\hat{u}_n(t-n+2k)\\ & = \frac{1}{(2i)^n} \sum_{k = 0}^n(-1)^k{n\choose k}\frac{(-1)^{n}i^n\pi}{(n-1)!}(t-n+2k)^{n-1}\operatorname{sign}(t-n+2k). \end{align} $$ Simplifying then gives $(2)$.
