It's not possible anymore to build MicroPython on Cygwin using a
standard Windows installation of Python so don't advertise that.
Specifically: preprocessing in makeqstrdefs.py fails on the subprocess
call with 'gcc: fatal error: no input files' because one of the flags
contains double quotes and that somehow messes up the commandline.
Default to just calling python since that is most commonly available: the
official installer or zipfiles from python.org, anaconda, nupkg all result
in python being available but not python3. In other words: the default
used so far is wrong. Note that os.name is 'posix' when running the python
version which comes with Cygwin or MSys2 so they are not affected by this.
However of all possible ways to get Python on Windows, only Cygwin provides
no python command so update the default way for running tests in the
README.
Make the instructions more complete by documenting all needed steps for
starting from scratch. Also add a section for MSYS2 since the Travis build
uses it as well and it's a good alternative for Cygwin. Remove the mingw32
reference since it's not readily available anymore in most Linux distros
nor compiles successfully.
This is to keep the top-level directory clean, to make it clear what is
core and what is a port, and to allow the repository to grow with new ports
in a sustainable way.
