The AC_CHECK_DECLS for inet_ntop and inet_pton only checked <arpa/inet.h>, which does not exist on MinGW. On MinGW, these functions are declared in <ws2tcpip.h>. This caused the check to fail, leaving HAVE_DECL_INET_NTOP=0, which made platform.h re-declare inet_ntop with socklen_t. With mingw-w64 >= v11 (Ubuntu 24.04), ws2tcpip.h declares inet_ntop with size_t, causing a conflicting types error. Include the correct Winsock headers in the check, matching the pattern already used by the getaddrinfo check above. Ticket: ENT-13766 Signed-off-by: Lars Erik Wik <lars.erik.wik@northern.tech>
