Shared library builds worked, but failed tests because they were made
with the wrong CRT linker settings. Strings allocated within the
library could not be freed outside the library because the dynamic CRT
was not used.
This sets necessary gyp variables to link with a dynamic CRT on
Windows, thereby fixing tests running in shared library mode that
otherwise hung in a GitHub Actions environment.
