Default IE version set to 6.0

IE 4 it too old. As it only supports up to WinNT 4.0, it's not available on WinXP or even Win2k. This leads to a mismatch with the default `_WIN32_WINNT = 0x500` (WinXP) value. Make the default IE version set to 6.0 could make more APIs available at default.

Also, DMD now supports only `Windows 7 or later, 32 or 64 bit` and Windows 7 has reached End Of Life on 14 January 2020, it could reasonably set default value to: `_WIN32_WINNT = 0x601` and `_WIN32_IE = 0x800`. But this topic should be discussed in another PR.
