Only ship required mfc dlls #1869

The binary distributions ship:

5,793,048 mfc140.dll
5,821,208 mfc140u.dll
  102,680 mfcm140.dll
  102,680 mfcm140u.dll

and I'm fairly sure only mfc140u.dll is needed. That would reduce the size of the distros significantly.

This code only taking the "canary") seems like what we want, but will need testing on a "clean" install.
