On UN*X, the file names for libraries begin with "lib" - the linkers all look 
for "libfoo.*" if you link with "-lfoo".

On Windows, that's not the case.

Is there any reason for us to put "lib" at the beginning of the file names for 
the wsutil, wiretap, wireshark, etc. libraries?  I infer from

        https://code.wireshark.org/review/2957

that CMake might, by default, not put "lib" there, requiring us to, in the 
CMake build, force it to be there on Windows by adding some stuff to the 
CMakeLists.txt files.
