import library for linking.

mingw-no-find_library-dll
-------------------------
* When building with GNU tools on Windows (MinGW tools), the
:command:`find_library` command will no longer consider
``.dll`` files to be linkable libraries. All dynamic link
libraries are expected to provide separate ``.dll.a`` or
``.lib`` import libraries.
