patch 9.1.1677: wrong ifdef in message.c

patch 9.1.1677: wrong ifdef in message.c

Problem: wrong ifdef in message.c
Solution: change it to #ifndef MSWIN (Damien Lejay)

The extra newline on screen switch is needed for all TTY/termcap
backends (Unix, VMS, others).

Only Windows uses a different console API.
Better use #ifndef MSWIN to express the real intent.

closes: #18076
