- GHA/windows: switch mingw-w64 UWP CI job to use UCRT.
`msvcr120_app` was missing `getch()` for example.

This job tests compiling for UWP correctly, but the the resulting

Closes#15638
The CRT call `getch()` isn't supported on Windows UWP. This function is
used to implement `getpass_r()` for reading a password from the console,
for platforms not supporting it natively. This patch makes this function
a dummy, so password entry from the command-line is no longer supported
for UWP apps. Though it probably did not work before this patch, due to:
CRT headers do declare `getch()`, but it's missing from the CRT DLL.
MSDN documents it as unsupported for UWP:
https://learn.microsoft.com/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/getchhttps://learn.microsoft.com/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/getch-getwch
Same is true for the non-deprecated `_getch()` function.
After mingw-w64 synced its implib with `msvcr120_app.dll`, the CI job
`mingw, CM x86_64 schannel R uwp` broke with:

Windows compilers define `_WIN32` automatically. Windows SDK headers
or build env defines `WIN32`, or we have to take care of it. The
agreement seems to be that `_WIN32` is the preferred practice here.
Make the source code rely on that to detect we're building for Windows.
Public `curl.h` was using `WIN32`, `__WIN32__` and `CURL_WIN32` for
Windows detection, next to the official `_WIN32`. After this patch it
only uses `_WIN32` for this. Also, make it stop defining `CURL_WIN32`.
There is a slight chance these break compatibility with Windows
compilers that fail to define `_WIN32`. I'm not aware of any obsolete
or modern compiler affected, but in case there is one, one possible
solution is to define this macro manually.
grepping for `WIN32` remains useful to discover Windows-specific code.
Also:
- extend `checksrc` to ensure we're not using `WIN32` anymore.
- apply minor formatting here and there.
- delete unnecessary checks for `!MSDOS` when `_WIN32` is present.

Closes#12376
Earlier this year we changed our own stderr variable to use the standard
name `stderr` (to avoid bugs where someone is using `stderr` instead of
the curl-tool specific variable). This solution needed to override the
standard `stderr` symbol via the preprocessor. This in turn didn't play
well with unity builds and caused curl tool to crash or stay silent due
to an uninitialized stderr. This was a hard to find issue, fixed by
manually breaking out one file from the unity sources.
To avoid two these two tricks, this patch implements a different
solution: Restore using our own local variable for our stderr output and
leave `stderr` as-is. To avoid using `stderr` by mistake, add a
`checksrc` rule (based on logic we already used in lib for `strerror`)
that detects any `stderr` use in `src` and points to using our own
variable instead: `tool_stderr`.

Configuration files such as curl_config.h and all config-*.h no longer exist
nor are generated/copied into 'src' directory, now these only exist in 'lib'

Additionally old src/setup.h has been refactored into src/tool_setup.h which
now pulls lib/setup.h
The possibility of a makefile needing an include path adjustment exists.
