win32: Simplify complicated DLL preparation

WinPidgin uses complicated DLL preparation in order to find where
GTK+ and other DLLs are located. This is broken due to names and
paths of DLLs having changed with the new build system and versions.
GTK+3 doesn't provide an installable package either. Since we need
to bundle the dependencies ourselves anyway, we can control where
they are stored and can simplify this complicated searching.

For the purpose of loading DLLs, the difference between "classic"
and "fhs" win32-dirs is that "classic" has its dependencies in a
bin/ subdirectory. Therefore, all that's really needed is to add
the bin/ subdirectory into the search path. This patch does this
using SetDllDirectory().

Produce meson-config.h in a build directory.

This should not really be run manually. It is used by Meson as a
post-configuration script to create meson-config.h which for now simply
contains information about the configuration used to create the build
directory.
