Be stricter when detecting Windows/Cygwin
This removes the check for "mingw" for platform.system(). The only case I know where "mingw" is return is if using a msys Python under a msys2 mingw environment. This combination is not really supported by meson and will result in weird errors, so remove the check. The second change is checking sys.platform for cygwin instead of platform.system(). The former is document to return "cygwin", while the latter is not and just returns uname(). While under Cygwin it uname() always starts with "cygwin" it's not hardcoded in MSYS2 and starts with the environment name. Using sys.platform is safer here. Fixes #7552
