What's new in 0.0.6

Added

  • Published 32-bit MinGW (i686) installer and ZIP artefacts to GitHub releases.

Changed

  • Targeted Windows 2000 (_WIN32_WINNT=0x500) for 32-bit MinGW builds; other configurations continue to target Windows XP or Vista as before.
  • Trimmed the build-msys workflow matrix to only the systems that publish release artefacts (mingw32, ucrt64, and clangarm64), removing the now-redundant release flag.
