Description

It seems the C++ arrow-python-test often hangs (times out) on MinGW64. Example here:
https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/8652/checks?check_run_id=1391934231

It doesn't seem useful to enable Python on the MinGW test. MinGW is generally not recommended (or even supported) for compiling Python extensions.
