ci: Use SDK build image MinGW-w64 installation

This commit updates the CI workflow to use the more up-to-date MinGW-w64
toolchain (MinGW 12.0.0, Binutils 2.42, GCC 13.2.0) from the SDK build
Docker image instead of installing the outdated distro default version.

Note that MinGW 12.0.0 defaults to UCRT on Windows.
