rustc: codegen: Build import library for all windows targets

So far it is assumed that using a DLL as a -l parameter argument is ok,
but the assumption doesn't hold when compiling the native code with
llvm.
In which case, an import library is required, so let's build one
This also requires the cargo counterpart to add the import library in
the stamp files, at least when compiling libstd. Otherwise, the files
don't get uplifted
