Brad King afbbfe5109 MinGW: Update find_library to not find plain .dll files

Modern distributions of packages built with MinGW tools provide `.dll.a`
import libraries.  Prefer those instead of finding plain `.dll` files.
This avoids accidentally finding unrelated Windows `.dll` files.

Fixes: #20019

 mingw-find-no-dll
 -----------------
 * When using MinGW tools, the :command:`find_library` command no longer
   finds ``.dll`` files by default.  Instead it expects ``.dll.a`` import
   libraries to be available.
