Following on from Build setup for a C program, many MinGW users prefer to use mingw-w64 rather than old 32 bit only mingw.

Currently we can use undocumented configurations mingw, vs_32 and vs_64

configuration:
  - mingw
  - vs_32
  - vs_64

Could you add configuration mingw-w64 similar to mingw but with MinGW-w64, please?

    What would adding that configuration include? Do we have to install something on build workers?

    mingw-w64 would include MSYS2. It has a package manager that would be broadly useful to people doing CI on Windows.
