This patch series upgrades to newer versions of a couple GitHub Actions we
use, and also streamlines the Windows jobs using the relatively new
setup-git-for-windows-sdk Action
[https://github.com/marketplace/actions/setup-git-for-windows-sdk] (Git for
Windows is running with this Action for a while now, getting all the kinks
out).

This patch series should also address the problem where seen was pushed so
rapidly that the windows-test jobs failed because they no longer checked out
the identical revision as the windows-build job.

Changes since v1:

 * Added a patch to fix make NO_GETTEXT=Yep artifacts-tar (not to include
   .mo files), as suggested by Matthias Aßauer in the GitGitGadget PR, which
   should fix the CI failure in seen that Junio pointed out. The bug was
   unhidden by mr/cmake fixing the CMake build (which ignored NO_GETTEXT
   before).

Dennis Ameling (1):
  ci(vs-build): build with NO_GETTEXT

Johannes Schindelin (6):
  ci: use the new GitHub Action to download git-sdk-64-minimal
  ci (vs-build): use `cmd` to copy the DLLs, not `powershell`
  ci: upgrade to using actions/{up,down}load-artifacts v2
  ci(windows): transfer also the Git-tracked files to the test jobs
  artifacts-tar: respect NO_GETTEXT
  ci: accelerate the checkout
