On MinGW, sparse issues an "'get_st_mode_bits' not declared. Should it be static?" warning. The MinGW and MSVC builds do not see the declaration of this function, within git-compat-util.h, due to its placement within an preprocessor conditional.
In order to suppress the warning, we simply move the declaration to the top level of the header.

Hi Junio,
Now that v1.8.3 is out, I note that this patch seems to have been dropped (or did I miss something?).
This used to be
[PATCH 2/6] path: Make the 'get_st_mode_bits' symbol a file static
but the change in implementation required a change in title. This version simply moves the declaration so that the MinGW and MSVC builds can see it.
ATB, Ramsay Jones
