laanwj 018fd96202 Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#22093 : build: Try posix-specific CXX first for mingw32 host

2fda0c7851 doc: Drop no longer required notes for Windows builds (Hennadii Stepanov)
f09ed92be1 build: Try posix-specific CXX first for mingw32 host (Hennadii Stepanov)

Pull request description:

  On master (1186910b6b), when cross-compiling for Windows using our depends build system, we must manually choose the POSIX thread model for the `x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++` compiler.

  This PR improves the build system to make this choice automa**g**ically.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
