Update drmingw to 0.9.8

Review Request #2110 — Created Dec. 2, 2022 and discarded

Information

pidgin/pidgin
release-2.x.y

Reviewers

The version of drmingw we were using was crashing on exit and a few other
places. The newer version defaults the rpt file name to what we were using so
we no longer need to set it. I also removed a redundant log filename setting
which I have no idea why it existed.

This required an update to the win32-dev.7z to include the new drmingw dlls,
which can be currently found at
https://data.imfreedom.org/pidgin/win32-dev-2022-12-01.7z

Created a plugin that threw a null pointer deference to make sure the rpt file was created.
Verified we don't see an application crash on exit in the event viewer anymore.

  2. This is not quite right, the drmingw we were using was a custom fork so we have to fix the debug symbols to exist in a place that gcc expects to be.

Change Summary:

We should do this for pidgin3, but this is a stupid amount of work for pidgin2 and it's been an issue for a long time and only one user has found it, so we're going to punt on this for now.
