On MinGW, sparse issues an "'get_st_mode_bits' not declared. Should
it be static?" warning. The MinGW and MSVC builds do not see the
declaration of this function, within git-compat-util.h, due to it's
placement within an preprocessor conditional. (So, one solution would
be to simply move the declaration to the top level of the header.)
In order to suppress the warning, since this symbol does not need
more than file visibility, we simply remove the declaration from
the header and add the static modifier to the function definition.
