Drop support for building with mingw v1?

Hi,

mingw seems to exist in a v1 and a v2, and we run CI jobs to verify that curl
builds fine with both.

Today I fell into an issue with PR #10651 where everything builds fine, execpt
on Windows with mingw v1.

There's really nothing unusual with that while working on a PR, but this time
it struck that I should at least ask the question:

Can we drop support for building with mingw v1?

It would make it slightly easier to get things to build.

Who would be sad, upset or angry if we remove support for this?
