Unnecessary CI builds increase the change of spurious failures, which are costly
noise. Of course, we should fix all legitimate bugs, but we also cannot
micro-manage every platform, so there needs to be a clear motivation for the CI
builds that we maintain.
Reasons against maintaining a mingw CI job:
1. The windows mingw build is slow.
2. Failures:
- https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/18494
- https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/18495
3. The mingw artifact is 10x bigger than the windows MSVC artifact:
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/10560
4. Our releases publish the MSVC (not mingw) artifact for Windows users:
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases
5. Non-MSVCRT has limitations documented by libuv: http://docs.libuv.org/en/v1.x/process.html
> On Windows file descriptors greater than 2 are available to the child process only if the child processes uses the MSVCRT runtime.
