[PATCH v5] MinGW(-W64) compilation

This patch series fixes building on modern MinGW and MinGW-W64 (including x86_64).

*Compilation* tested on:
 - MSVC
 - msysGit environment (twice)
 - Linux cross-toolchain i686-pc-mingw32
 - Linux cross-toolchain i686-w64-mingw32
 - Linux cross-toolchain x86_64-w64-mingw32

Also, this patchset is confirmed to pass msysgit testsuite.

Attention: in order to build on MinGW-W64, you need a version that has
https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/bugs/397 fixed. Otherwise, you'll get:

  compat/poll/poll.c: In function 'poll':
  compat/poll/poll.c:541:7: warning: implicit declaration of function 'MsgWaitForMultipleObjects'
  compat/poll/poll.c:542:26: error 'QS_ALLINPUT' undeclared (first use in this function)

-------

Cosmetic changes since v4:

 * Reworded 'MSVC: config.mak.uname: drop -D__USE_MINGW_ACCESS from CFLAGS'
   (added note about MinGW section)
 * Reworded 'MINGW: config.mak.uname: reorganize MinGW settings'
   (now uses gender-neutral singular 'they')
 * Reworded 'Fix pointer -> integer casts on IL32P64 systems'
   (added references to Gnulib commits)

-------

Additional note:

todays git.git/master is broken on both MSVC and MinGW-W64 because of 7559a1be + 4e6d207c: MSVC doesn't have sigset_t at all, MinGW-W64 has it in sys/types.h, but it is only available with -D_POSIX. I hope this can be resolved separately as a regression for MSVC.
