   GHA/windows: make MSVC jobs use MSYS2 libraries: psl, OpenSSL, H2, libssh2
   Extend MSVC jobs with the option to use MSYS2 binary package as DLL
   dependencies. Allow to use them alone (without vcpkg) or combined with
   vcpkg packages. This saves the trouble of building these packages from
   source and cache them manually.
   
   This solution requires two tricks:
   - workaround for zlib which installs a target-specific `zconf.h` that's
     not portable between platforms and C compilers.
   - manual dependency configuration in CMake to ensure linking against
     the MSYS2 DLLs (and not it static libs). Static libs aren't portable
     to MSVC due to missing symbols `__chkstk_ms`, `_stack_chk_fail`,
     `_memcpy_chk`, `_stack_chk_guard`, and potentially other issues. CMake
     in MSVC mode, `linker.exe` and `pkg-config` pick the static libs by
     default. To pick `.dll.a` in favour of `.a`, these tools would have
     to be taught about this convention. An alternative is deleting static
     libs and see if `.dll.a` are picked-up automatically.
   
   Using MSYS2 packages adds an install step taking 15-45 seconds per job.
   
   It allowed to:
   - re-enable libpsl for all MSVC jobs.
   - convert the Intel 64-bit job to use MSYS2 without vcpkg, enabling
     brotli, zstd, OpenSSL 3.5.0, libssh2 (with OpenSSL cryprography) and
     nghttp2.
   
   Using the same technique it's possible to re-enable more features
   in MSVC builds, e.g. GnuTLS (also with H3), LibreSSL, mbedTLS, nghttp3,
   ngtcp2, libssh, c-ares, gsasl, and replace vcpkg zlib, for faster runs.
   What's missing compared to vcpkg is BoringSSL and wolfSSL
   (the MSYS2-supplied build doesn't fit curl's requirements IIRC). These
   could be built and cached manually.
   
   Also:
   - add workaround for zlib (classic) which uses a generated `zconf.h`,
     rendering the MSYS2 zlib header incompatible with MSVC.
   - set the correct `msystem` for arm64.
   - allow using MSVC without vcpkg.
   
   Follow-up to cd0ec4784c1c0f873939f33ec1a73c8739f276b9 #17089
   
   Closes #17561
