1.63.0 RC2 successfully built for mingw-w64, without any workarounds.
(Boost.Fiber is detecting my lack of std::mutex and simply not building,
which is fine by me.)

Notably, this is the first time that I've ever been able to build Boost
without patches or workarounds. This is after bootstrap.sh was fixed for
mingw-w64/msys2, Context/Coroutine/Coroutine2 were fixed to build for
mingw-w64, and Python auto-detection started working again. Yay!

Thanks,
STL
