From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

GitLab's MinGW job fails with "cargo: command not found": https://gitlab.com/git-scm/git/-/jobs/16576450182

86909a94db5d (ci(windows): build with Rust, 2026-09-13) enabled Rust in the shared CI configuration, but added the necessary setup only for GitHub Actions.

The build needs Cargo to be reachable after the minimal SDK's login profile replaces PATH. Installing the toolchain alone is not enough.
