mingw: improve performance of mingw_unlink()

Update mingw_unlink() to first try to delete the file with existing
permissions before trying to force it.

Windows throws an error when trying to delete a read-only file.  The
mingw_unlink() compatibility wrapper always tries to _wchmod(666) the
file before calling _wunlink() to avoid that error.  However, since
most files in the worktree are already writable, this is usually
wasted effort.

Update mingw_unlink() to just call DeleteFileW() directly and if that
succeeds return.  If that fails, fall back into the existing code path
to update the permissions and use _wunlink() to get the existing
error code mapping.
