Merge #18956: build: enforce minimum required Windows version (7)
e8a8cff07c409c7eecd478d3df36c7ba92c59730 build: enforce minimum required Windows version (7) (fanquake) Pull request description: Instruct the linker to set the major & minor subsystem versions in the PE header to 6 & 1 (NT 6.1 which corresponds to Windows 7). Similar to the behaviour on macOS, the binary will now refuse to run on unsupported versions of Windows, which, for us, is XP & Vista. ![windows_no_run](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/863730/81654555-38e0fd00-9468-11ea-9cc8-caf37dec5713.png) ACKs for top commit: laanwj: ACK e8a8cff07c409c7eecd478d3df36c7ba92c59730 Tree-SHA512: 2f7c6443b79b1c6b995e337452aa177e95b0a9c48e47bcf1893aad6fd598e45940ab8eaa5ee1c5d994a521239b4e1b55a55bb3e8ffe367e1349db2a46892a6d4
