Description

EntityX is in ConanCenter: https://conan.io/center/entityx

But the shared library build has been removed for Windows: https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/ff8bf5423a93bd972099a16f2a7b2646d53b7f69/recipes/entityx/all/conanfile.py#L52

Removing those lines, the output shows as the result of CMake install:
```
-- Install configuration: "Release"
-- Installing: C:/.../lib/pkgconfig/entityx.pc
-- Installing: C:/.../include/entityx
-- Installing: C:/.../include/entityx/deps
-- Installing: C:/.../include/entityx/deps/Dependencies.h
...
-- Installing: C:/.../include/entityx/System.h
-- Installing: C:/.../include/entityx/tags
-- Installing: C:/.../include/entityx/tags/TagsComponent.h
-- Installing: C:/.../bin/entityx.dll
```

Further inspection shows that the .lib static library is not being created at all. The ENTITYX_BUILD_SHARED is being defined.

Is this intended behavior? I can see that shared libraries are working fine in other platforms, is shared .dll library support for Windows? Thanks!
