Description

Prefer linking static libraries (except OpenAL32.dll) on Windows MSVC toolchain.

Library dependency:

sfml-audio-s.lib >------------------------------------+--> openal32.lib >--+--> flac.lib

                                                      |                    +--> ogg.lib --> vorbis.lib >--+--> vorbisfile.lib
                                                      |                                                   ↓

Hi, it kind of duplicate with (different problem but conceptually the same issue): https://github.com/jeremyletang/rust-sfml/issues/296

I've tried using the SFML_STATIC environment variable and it doesn't build. The reason is stated here: https://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=13908.0

I don't have access to MSVC compiler, but if anyone is curious about testing the vendored-sfml branch with it, I would appreciate some reports. This branch should allow linking everything except OpenAL statically.
