[PATCH] Azure CI: Drop Windows host tools builds

[Tom Rini]

In preparation for being able to support more recent OpenSSL versions,
we need to add support for the OpenSSL Provider API. This in turn isn't
something that MSYS has all of the required packages to support. Given a
lack of user feedback that these tools are still used in this manner,
remove Windows host tool builds from CI.

This is intended for the next branch, and to allow for a more visible
part of the removal to be made now. This means v2026.07 will be the last
version to support MSYS for host tool builds.
