[issue11723] Add support for mingw64 compiler

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo added the comment:

“MinGW 64 is an open source C/C++ compiler based on the popular gcc; basically, it is intended to generate executables for Windows 64 bit.”

If there is significant interest from the community for that compiler, support could be added to 3.5.

Alternatively, a way to add third-party compilers could be designed.
