Description
### Describe the issue
On Windows - when generating gtest from source using CMake it generates the projects with /MTd instead of /MDd
The configuration by default is /MDd - please see screenshots below.
### Steps to reproduce the problem
Checkout git,
cd googletest
mkdir build
cd build
cmake-gui ..
The configuration is /DM and /MDd - as expected.
When openning the generated project the setings are /MTd instead of /MDd - which later breaks the code.

Research direction
Reproduce the Windows build with CMake 3.23.2 and Visual Studio 2022 using the listed checkout, build directory, and cmake-gui steps. Compare the generated project's runtime-library setting with the CMake configuration, and consider the issue done when the generated project uses /MDd rather than /MTd.
