deps: Move from winapi to windows-sys

[poliorcetics]

winapi is in maintenance mode and the new blessed way to access Windows APIs are the windows
and windows-sys crates. I don't think any types of winapi were exposed in the public API so
I used windows-sys since it has much faster compile times.

@poliorcetics Fair enough. What's the MSRV policy for windows-sys?

[faern]

Current MSRV seems to be 1.48. This is the closest to a "policy" I find: microsoft/windows-rs#2300

[poliorcetics]

windows-sys tries to not do releases (the rythm is ask-based, there will not be a release if no one asks for one, and there needs to be a reason), and same for the MSRV: unless needed (and given the crate is "just" bindings to the Windows API, it shouldn't often need it), windows-sys won't move much, if at all from what we saw in the last few months

EDIT: negative is hard

I can't get the GitHub Actions to let me run this in CI. Could you please rebase this on top of the latest main and push -f it to this branch? then I think I can run the CI and merge it.

Also of note: in the past the Windows-rs team has reduced the MSRV if it proved important for a crate and it was feasible: GuillaumeGomez/sysinfo#950 (comment) :)

Thanks!

Friends, I merged this but I am hoping to immediately replace it by PR #1542, which removes the windows-sys dependency. I would appreciate people taking a look at #1542 and testing it out on Aarch64 Windows systems.
