compat/mingw.c: Teach mingw_rename() to replace read-only files
On POSIX, rename() can replace files that are not writable. On Windows,
however, read-only files cannot be replaced without additional efforts:
We have to make the destination writable first.
Since the situations where the destination is read-only are rare, we do not
make the destination writable on every invocation, but only if the first
try to rename a file failed with an "access denied" error.
