Windows: Drop support for Vista (0x0600)

Browse source 
We need the efficient SRWLock methods which are not supported on Vista,
and loading them dynamically while providing fallbacks is not worth the
effort. Closes #10243.

Sorry Vista users... As you are running a supported which is no longer
supported by Microsoft (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/13853/windows-lifecycle-fact-sheet),
we can only encourage you to upgrade to a more recent version if you can,
or switch to Linux, which should give your old hardware a new youth.
