We already build Git for Windows with `NO_GETTEXT` when compiling with
GCC. Let's do the same with Visual C, too.

Note that we do not technically _need_ to pass `NO_GETTEXT` explicitly
in that `make artifacts-tar` invocation because we do this while `MSVC`
is set (which will set `uname_S := Windows`, which in turn will set
`NO_GETTEXT = YesPlease`). But it is definitely nicer to be explicit
here.

In other words, is this a no-op but makes the recipe more readable?

Yes. And it also removes some puzzlement from the thorough reviewer
(Matthias stumbled over it and was wondering why this even works without
`NO_GETTEXT`).

Thanks,
Dscho
