The build instructions at https://www.ffmpeg.org/platform.html#toc-
Microsoft-Visual-C_002b_002b-or-Intel-C_002b_002b-Compiler-for-Windows
tells us this:
>To set up a proper environment in MSYS2, you need to run msys_shell.bat
from the Visual Studio or Intel Compiler command prompt.
But in the latest MSYS2 version you actually need to use a special
parameter to pass the PATH variable to the shell:
{{{
msys2_shell.cmd -use-full-path
}}}
Without the flag cl.exe won't be found and running ./configure fails.
