build: drop win-x86 (32-bit x86) builds for release and CI - #2456

Conversation
With GCM 3.0 on Windows, drop the 32-bit x86 target from being built in CI and release jobs. We still retain the ability to build for win-x86 locally for those that wish to build it themselves. This is similar to the support we have for linux-arm (armhf) - you can built it yourself; we do not publish bits. Signed-off-by: Matthew John Cheetham <mjcheetham@outlook.com>

cc @dscho as this impacts what GCM package version the i686 MinGit distributions will need to reference (they'll need to reference the latest 2.x rather than 3.x).
