win32_build.sh: mingw-llvm support
winpthreads is a library that emulates the pthreads API using
Windows primitives. It's also used by the mingw/gcc libstdc++
for std::thread.
The issue is that winpthreads isn't well maintained. There
have been numerous bugs that haven't been addressed in years.
Specifically, we've been hitting deadlocks because of the
winpthreads rw lock implementation.
This change will allow building Ceph for Windows using mingw/llvm,
which uses libc++ and doesn't rely on winpthreads.
