Workaround for #446 after windows-2022 runner image updates (#462)

* Windows CI: chocolatey installs pinned version of mingw,
GITHUB_PATH updated so PATH points to that version in
following steps.
Another workaround for problems with GCC 14/GDB 16
after GitHub windows-2020 runner image was updated
to use them. This only buys more time and doesn't
fix the underlying problem.
* Update to windows-latest now that windows-2022
doesn't help anymore.
