ci: fix Windows build to not require libiconv-2.dll at runtime

Fix the Windows release binary failing to start due to missing libiconv-2.dll. The root cause was the sed workaround using .dll.a files (import libraries for dynamic linking) instead of .a files (static libraries). Changes: - Fix sed command in configure-win.sh to use static libraries (.a) instead of dynamic import libraries (.dll.a) for libiconv/libintl - Add bundle-win-dlls.sh script that detects and copies any missing DLLs as a safety net (reports none needed with proper static linking) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
