Mingw config targets assumed that resulting programs and libraries are installed in a Unix-like environment and the default installation prefix was therefore set to '/usr/local'. However, mingw programs are installed in a Windows environment, and the installation directories should therefore have Windows defaults, i.e. the same kind of defaults as the VC config targets. A difficulty is, however, that a "cross compiled" build can't figure out the system defaults from environment the same way it's done when building "natively", so we have to fall back to hard coded defaults in that case. Tests can still be performed when cross compiled on a non-Windows platform, since all tests only depend on the source and build directory, and otherwise relies on normal local paths. CVE-2019-1552

[This is a port of #9400 to 1.1.0]
Mingw config targets assumed that resulting programs and libraries are
installed in a Unix-like environment and the default installation
prefix was therefore set to '/usr/local'.
However, mingw programs are installed in a Windows environment, and
the installation directories should therefore have Windows defaults,
i.e. the same kind of defaults as the VC config targets.
A difficulty is, however, that a "cross compiled" build can't figure
out the system defaults from environment the same way it's done when
building "natively", so we have to fall back to hard coded defaults in
that case.
Tests can still be performed when cross compiled on a non-Windows
platform, since all tests only depend on the source and build
directory, and otherwise relies on normal local paths.
