The directx-shader-compiler (dxc.exe) is required for some DirectX 12.0 based things such as DirectXTK12.

I have a package at: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JPeterMugaas/MINGW-ext-packages/master/mingw-w64-dxc/PKGBUILD but that simply packages the precompiled binaries from GitHub and The DirectXShaderCompiler is open-source.

This serves a different need than the efxc2 package that compiles shaders for DirectX 11 and earlier.
