setup: don't fail when Python doesn't have the cygwinccompiler package

Some Python installations like the ones available from the optware
project
for the Synology DiskStation NASes don't have that package, which means
running the setup script will crash and exit right away. Instead, we now
just use an empty/fake class for the HackedMingw32CCompiler, which we
likely won't use anyway.
