refactor(windows)!: only support UCRT, even for mingw
The newer UCRT runtime has native support for UTF-8, including forcing it as the active codepage even before `main()` is called. This means the c runtime will properly convert windows WCHAR:s into UTF-8 bytes, as early as the argv/argc params to `main()` . Whereas MSVCRT does not support this reliably and required us to use `wmain()`. Only MSVC supports using manifest files directly as source files. The solution for other Windows toolchains is to use a .rc file.
