mingw: support renaming symlinks

Older MSVCRT's `_wrename()` function cannot rename symlinks over
existing files: it returns success without doing anything. Newer
MSVCR*.dll versions probably do not share this problem: according to CRT
sources, they just call `MoveFileEx()` with the `MOVEFILE_COPY_ALLOWED`
flag.

Avoid the `_wrename()` call, and go with directly calling
`MoveFileEx()`, with proper error handling of course.
