Tests (MinGW): Disable mkfifo-based tests

With MSys2, there is actually an implementation of mkfifo available. The
only problem is that it is only emulating named pipes through the MSys2
runtime; The Win32 API has no idea about named pipes, hence the Git
executable cannot access those pipes either.

The symptom is that Git fails with a '<name>: No such file or directory'
because MSys2 emulates named pipes through special-crafted '.lnk' files.

The solution is to tell the test suite explicitly that we cannot use
named pipes when we want to test a MinGW Git.
