Yes, thank you!

Adjusted build-dep-zips.py and had to install some missing MSYS2
packages but now the script builds dpendencies.  And the other script
seems to build Emacs.  But I'm still unsecure about the naming.
E.g. why are snapshots of Emacs aren't named with the date but just
"emacs-29.0.50-snapshot"?
