depends: Bump dlfcn-win32 to v1.4.2

[garbear]

Description

As title says, I bumped dlfcn-win32 to v1.4.2, and updated the patches.

Notable changes:

• CMake 4.0 support was added in v1.4.2 (dropped our CMake policy patches)
• Windows ARM64 support was added in v1.4.0.

dlfcn-win32 fork

I rebased the windows UWP patch, but it crashes patch.exe on Azure, so I forked the dlfcn-win32 repo and tagged v1.4.2 with Alwin's commit.

Error on azure was:

[D:\a\1\s\build\dlfcn-win32.vcxproj]

Then in the depends file I set the repo to my fork + the commit:

dlfcn-win32 https://github.com/garbear/dlfcn-win32/archive/refs/tags/v1.4.2-uwp2.tar.gz

How has this been tested?

Compile-tested on Windows 10 x64. Runtime testing in progress.

Other add-ons

The following add-ons also use dlfcn-win32 and should be updated:

Pull request overview

This PR bumps the dlfcn-win32 dependency from v1.2.0 to v1.4.2 for both windows (desktop) and windowsstore (UWP) build targets. The upgrade brings CMake 4.0 compatibility (eliminating the need for the CMake policy patch) and adds Windows ARM64 support. For the UWP target, since the official v1.4.2 upstream release broke the Azure patch step, the author uses a personal fork (garbear/dlfcn-win32) with the UWP changes already committed at tag v1.4.2-uwp2, removing the need for the UWP patch file as well.

Changes:

• Updated dependency URLs and SHA256 hashes for both windows and windowsstore targets to v1.4.2.
• Removed the now-unnecessary CMake policy bump patches for both targets (handled natively in v1.4.2); removed the UWP patch for windowsstore (baked into the fork tag).
• Updated 0001-dlopen_with_widechar.patch for windows to reflect the new source file path (src/dlfcn.c) and line numbers in v1.4.2; added a .gitattributes entry to prevent LF/CRLF corruption of patch files.

OK, I dropped the personal repo, and modified the Azure pipeline to wrap patch.exe in a wrapper that invokes with --binary.
