Research direction

Start with the environment page and compare its toolchain guidance with the main page's default MinGW64 instructions. Update the environment-page information so the relevant toolchain packages are grouped for each shell, then verify that both shell sections clearly show the intended package names.

Description

I.E. for msys UCRT shell, mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-toolchain, for msys Mingw64 shell: mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain. kinda like how the main page instructs to install the mingw64 toolchain by default
