gcc will helpfully raise a -Wcast-function-type warning when casting
between functions that might have incompatible return types
(ex: GetUserNameExW returns bool which is only half the size of the
return type from FARPROC which is long long), so create a new type that
could be used as a completely generic function pointer and cast through
it instead.
Additionaly remove the -Wno-incompatible-pointer-types temporary
flag added in 27e0c3c (win32: allow building with pedantic mode
enabled, 2021-09-03), as it will be no longer needed.

Here, GCC warns about every use of the INIT_PROC_ADDR macro, for example:
In file included from compat/mingw.c:8:
compat/mingw.c: In function 'mingw_strftime':
compat/win32/lazyload.h:38:12: warning: assignment to
'size_t (*)(char *, size_t, const char *, const struct tm *)'
{aka 'long long unsigned int (*)(char *, long long unsigned int,
const char *, const struct tm *)'} from incompatible pointer type
'FARPROC' {aka 'long long int (*)()'} [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
38 | (function = get_proc_addr(&proc_addr_##function))
| ^
compat/mingw.c:1014:6: note: in expansion of macro 'INIT_PROC_ADDR'
1014 | if (INIT_PROC_ADDR(strftime))
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(message wrapped for convenience). Insert a cast to keep the compiler
happy. A cast is fine in these cases because they are generic function
pointer values that have been looked up in a DLL.

In preparation to building with pedantic mode enabled, change a couple
of places where the current mingw gcc compiler provided with the SDK
reports issues.
A full fix for the incompatible use of (void *) to store function
pointers has been punted, with the minimal change to instead use a
generic function pointer (FARPROC), and therefore the (hopefully)
temporary need to disable incompatible pointer warnings.

Dynamic loading of DLL functions is duplicated in several places in Git
for Windows' source code.
This patch adds a pair of macros to simplify the process: the
DECLARE_PROC_ADDR(<dll>, <return-type>, <function-name>,
...<function-parameter-types>...) macro to be used at the beginning of a
code block, and the INIT_PROC_ADDR(<function-name>) macro to call before
using the declared function. The return value of the INIT_PROC_ADDR()
call has to be checked; If it is NULL, the function was not found in the
specified DLL.
Example:
DECLARE_PROC_ADDR(kernel32.dll, BOOL, CreateHardLinkW,
LPCWSTR, LPCWSTR, LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES);
if (!INIT_PROC_ADDR(CreateHardLinkW))
return error("Could not find CreateHardLinkW() function";
if (!CreateHardLinkW(source, target, NULL))
return error("could not create hardlink from %S to %S",
source, target);
return 0;
