Windows: Drop support for Vista (0x0600)
We need the efficient SRWLock methods which are not supported on Vista,
and loading them dynamically while providing fallbacks is not worth the
effort. Closes #10243.
Sorry Vista users... As you are running a supported which is no longer
supported by Microsoft (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/13853/windows-lifecycle-fact-sheet),
we can only encourage you to upgrade to a more recent version if you can,
or switch to Linux, which should give your old hardware a new youth.
