Fix static build (DllMain)

[melroy89]

Do not include the DllMain entry point in the static build, only when it's a shared build.

@ebassi Maybe you want to look at this PR?

I receive mail for all PRs/issues; I don't always have time to review things immediately: libepoxy is not the only project I work on.

It would be nice to have some test, or a CI pipeline job, that checks the static build on Windows and ensures that a) it works and b) it does not regress.

I understand, no blame.

I agree. I guess, we can extend the github action workflow file with a static build:

Ping? (sorry to just bother you, otherwise I don't see this getting merged)

[melroy89]

Any feedback?

I would appreciate if this is supported upstream as well.

Me too that is why I created this pr. @ebassi @anholt somebody?

Is it really enough to not compile DllMain? Wouldn't it take an alternative way to do the initialization which is in the body of this function?

Having tested a few of these branches, #304 is the one that seems to work the best for static library builds.
