docs: Update descriptions of `host_machine.system()` about Windows
There are two environments on Windows:
* When invoked in a Cygwin or MSYS2 MSYS shell, `host_machine.system()` returns `cygwin`.
* When invoked in a MSYS2 MINGW32/MINGW64/UCRT64/CLANG64/etc., `host_machine.system()` returns `windows`.
