Building poppler for Windows

I know what you're thinking: haven't we strayed from the whole "content pipeline" theme in this series?

Well... fair. But compiling and distributing software is part of software engineering, and unless you're in specific circles, I see that taught a lot less than the "just write code and stuff happens" part.

A static poppler build: the easy way

So! Now our asset processing pipeline is almost complete. But we've just traded dependencies against CLI tools, for dependencies against dynamic libraries:
