Magnus Hagander 2367da886d Don't recommend upgrading to latest available Windows SDK
We only support up to version 7.0, so don't recommend
upgrading past it. The rest of the documentation around this
was already updated, but one spot was missed.

Andrew Dunstan 51be78b09a Update docs on building for Windows to accomodate current reality.
Document how to build 64 bit Windows binaries using the MinGW64 tool set.
Remove recommendation against using Mingw as a build platform.
Be more specific about when Cygwin is useful and when it's not,  in
particular note its usefulness for running psql, and
add a note about building on Cygwin in non-C locales.

Per recent discussions.

Robert Haas 3186560f46 Replace doc references to install-win32 with install-windows.

As suggested by Mike Toews.
