This PR removes the mingw variant provided by https://github.com/MSP-Greg/ruby-loco.

rubo-loco stopped producing new builds for mingw on Dec 5, 2025, and now msys2 mingw64 is also deprecated. There is no reason to keep this variant around.

This will break any usage of ruby-version: mingw, I'm not sure if there are many.
There is probably no great solution though, so this sounds like the only way.

cc @MSP-Greg is this OK?

MSYS2 deprecated mingw64, so ruby/setup-msys2-gcc no longer ships
msys2-mingw64.7z in its latest release and setup-ruby fails with a 404
before any test runs. ruby/setup-ruby#969 removes the mingw build. The
ucrt and mswin builds keep Windows covered.
