Comment:
I've been making build tests on a msys2 environment hacked up (not going to release that dirty environment, but going to make a fresh one for this ticket).
- Qt6 is not co-installable with Qt5, and both working Qt5-client and working Qt6-client can be built from such an environment.
- As we are scaling down win32 support, and the size of msys2 environment snapshots are causing trouble already, I've installed Qt6 for the win64 target only (no new functionality for win32). This derives from the old standard that environment for both win32 and win64 targets are identical

Ticket details:
We've done msys2 environment snapshots about once every three months, and that time will be up since 211115 snapshot in a couple of weeks.
- There's a new upstream base snapshot 220118
- As we found out in #42343, Qt6 is not co-installable with Qt5 in msys2 and as we will need Qt5 for some time (to make it possible to backport new msys2 environment to S3_0), we can't have Qt6 in the official snapshot.
For that last part I try (time permitting) to check if the "not co-installable" still is true with latest msys2. It's unlikely that the thing has changed, but it would really help us.
