build-and-deploy: work around curl v8.11.0 bug

In order to deploy the bug fix for curl, we need to work around the bug that this fix addresses... because the bug breaks the deployment of all MSYS2-packages, including `libcurl`. Let's work around this by downgrading `libcurl` specifically for this deployment. See git-for-windows/MSYS2-packages#199 for more details. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
