Windows-GNU: Restore find_library treatment of '.dll' as linkable (#15409)
Revert commit v3.3.0-rc1~435^2 (Windows-GNU: Do not tell find_library to treat '.dll' as linkable, 2015-02-18). MinGW tools support linking to '.dll' files directly and many non-CMake build systems still do not provide a separate '.dll.a' file.
