cmake: allow CURL_STATIC_CRT with UCRT VS2015+ builds

After this patch, we're back to 8.12.1, but disallowing
`CURL_STATIC_CRT=ON` with shared curl exe built with VS2013 or older.
Because those may crash. A stable reprducer is with `ENABLE_DEBUG=ON`
and calling `curl.exe -V`.

You can pass the necessary CMake and MSVC linker options manually,
to get around this condition.

Shared build with static UCRT may be crashing too, depending on
conditions. Consult the documentation about limitations of static CRT:
