Since rename (#113) rust installer triggers Windows bug feature that makes 32-bit binaries with specific strings automatically trigger UAC prompt (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/aa905330(v=msdn.10)#installer-detection).
This is an issue when running program in non-elevated shell like we do at MSYS2: msys2/MINGW-packages#9091 (comment), For that reason we carry this PR as downstream patch.

Here is how manifest is configured by the default with embed-manifest crate: https://docs.rs/embed-manifest/1.3.1/embed_manifest/fn.new_manifest.html

Msys2 doesn't build 32-bit gnullvm host anymore.
