do Windows users still target WinXP?

I found by chance that the default Windows target platform is WinXP,
unless a sufficiently new _MSC_VER is used. I'm not sure if this is
still a sensible default? At least MSYS2 also dropped WinXP support
recently. I can patch my MSYS2 build, but maybe it would be time to
just reverse the logic of lib/cpp/src/thrift/windows/config.h and
require the user to explicitly enable WinXP when they need it?

Just my two cents...

All the best,
