Stop specifying `/BASE` option to `mozc_tip32.dll` and `mozc_tip64.dll`

[yukawa]

Description

Currently mozc_tip32.dll and mozc_tip64.dll are built with /BASE option. https://github.com/google/mozc/blob/af209061632ba7dcc64b63bd06eb988974375508/src/win32/tip/tip.gyp#L155-L157 https://github.com/google/mozc/blob/af209061632ba7dcc64b63bd06eb988974375508/src/win32/tip/tip.gyp#L174-L176

This is however now discouraged as follows.

Note

For security reasons, Microsoft recommends you use the /DYNAMICBASE option instead of specifying base addresses for your executables. /DYNAMICBASE generates an executable image that can be randomly rebased at load time by using the address space layout randomization (ASLR) feature of Windows. The /DYNAMICBASE option is on by default.

You can also find the following warning while building Mozc for Windows (e.g. from build #186)

[456/457] LINK_EMBED(DLL) mozc_tip64.dll
LINK : warning LNK4281: undesirable base address 0x6000000 for x64 image; set base address above 4GB for best ASLR optimization

Also from Does ASLR relocate all DLLs by the same offset? - The Old New Thing

ASLR chooses the base address pseudo-randomly, though it does take some of the original base addresses into account. For example, if the original base address was below the 4GB boundary, then the new pseudo-random base address will also be below the 4GB boundary.

Steps to reproduce

1. Build and install Mozc for Windows
2. dumpbin /HEADERS .\out_win\Release\mozc_tip32.dll
3. dumpbin /HEADERS .\out_win\Release_x64\mozc_tip64.dll
4. Launch Notepad (64-bit)
5. Select Mozc as the current IME

Expected behavior

• At the step 5, mozc_tip64.dll is loaded into somewhere above 0x100000000

Expected result in the step 2
