While we do want users to be able to use the mingw from git, being under
the experimental umbrella makes it more obvious that this should not be
used as a production toolchain.

There is no need to differentiate the win32 threads case, since we
can cosider them to be the native implementation on Windows.
Besides, with the previous patch, nothing uses it anymore.
So, just remove it.

This will help add new implementations, such as the one in musl.

Use a more coherent naming for the options. This will help commonalise
the native case (e.g. NPTL on Linux, win32 on Windows), and add alternate
implementations (e.g. musl.)

It is used for skipping unnecessary compilation steps when the libc
doesn't need to be compiled (eg. when we do not use a C library).

Replace the 32-bit-only mingw32 with mingw-w64 that is capable
of building toolchains for both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows.
kernel/mingw: replace mingw32 with generic Windows
kernel/windows: New windows kernel supporting 32 and 64 bit arch
libc/mingw: Remove old options
patches: Remove old mingw libc options' patches

The latest kconfig stuff is more stringent when it comes to validating
the dependency of the symbols. It is no longer possible to have a symbol
depend on itself (such as our construct for arch/cc/libc/... was doing).
Fix our generated-file infrastructure to avoid these situations when the
new kconfig stuff will be merged (in a following changeset).

Add the option to build a cross-compiler for kernel type 'mingw'.
The resulting cross-compiler can be used to build applications on a Linux host
that can be run on a Windows target.
Compiler is build using the mingwrt and w32-api packages aviable from the
MinGW project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw).
The windows headers (w32-api package) are extracting with the kernel_headers
step The libraries and other headers from both packages are build and
installed in the various steps of libc
