CI job demonstrates a template that users can use to build a local development environment
A lot of the Windows-specific stuff is not needed in MSYS2
Disadvantages:
The previous Windows support was specific to Visual Studio. That support is probably broken now.
Other notes and additional work needed:
It looks like the previous support was for a 32bit Windows target. This tests on a x86_64 architecture. Some macros like WIN32 should probably be renamed.
The Windows instructions in WinSpecific/README.txt should be updated.
