Description
The new 'formats' extension does not build on windows. A possibility is that the '.def' file needs to be renamed to match the library name (i.e. rename 'extension-formats.def' to 'libsqlite-formats.def'). I do not have a Windows build environment to test this and it is just a guess!

Start by inspecting extension-formats.def and the Windows build configuration for the formats extension, then reproduce the build in a Windows environment. Check whether the definition file must match the library name; done means the new formats extension builds successfully on Windows.
