Cross-compiling from Ubuntu to Windows with Rustup

Thanks to /u/ssokolow and /u/mmstick for a solution!

I did:

sudo apt install mingw-w64

I had to create ~/.cargo/config/ and write:

[target.x86_64-pc-windows-gnu]
linker = "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc"
ar = "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc-ar"

Then I just did:

cargo build --release --target=x86_64-pc-windows-gnu --verbose

Thanks again, everyone, for all of your help!
