Rebased and pushed updated code. One spec and one test (test-all) were bypassed via the first two commits. One issue that may help in mswin CI is that Actions Windows is changing line endings in the repo...
I started on this for two reasons. First, AppVeyor CI often backs up all of the Ruby repos, and secondly, I expect to move ruby-loco to Actions, and likely similar issues... EDIT: MinGW Actions passed here and also in my fork at: |

While we have some new skips on Actions compared to AppVeyor, people seem to basically agree that Actions is better than AppVeyor. Besides build time is shorter in Actions. Let me merge this and drop AppVeyor MinGW. Thank you. |
* MinGW - skip spec in spec/ruby/optional/capi/thread_spec.rb

* MinGW - skip test test/resolv/test_dns.rb

* MinGW - skip test test/ruby/test_thread_queue.rb
* Add Actions mingw.yml
Starter yaml file for running MinGW builds on Actions.
actions/checkout@v2has been released with more options, etc. Changed to allow CI in forks when not using master branch.make buildandmake testseem to consistently succeed/pass.make test-allseems to have one or two consistent errors.make test-specis kind of a mess. The 2nd commit is needed to bypass a spec, otherwise the step freezes. See Perform full MSYS2/MinGW update for build, -fstack-protector-strong - spec freeze #2718 and https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16265. But, with that change, the last run in my fork showed '58 failures, 2 errors'Since
actions/setup-ruby@v1/disk images are not current, this uses an action of mine (MSP-Greg/actions-ruby@master) that install currents MinGW Rubies, corrects/cleans the Actions path, and allows package installation on the MSYS2 install.With most of these issues not happening in AppVeyor CI, I haven't had time to look for why the CI platform is affecting things.
