Raylib now on MSYS2!!!

[jacknicklenson]

Hi,

I asked MSYS2 maintainers to add raylib package to their repo and they' ve added. Therefore, windows users can install raylib as a dependency for their project easily with that command in mingw shell pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-raylib.

MSYS2 project -> https://msys2.org
MSYS2 raylib -> https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-raylib?repo=mingw64

The only problem is that they for some reason install it as a dll instead of static library.

ldd .\out\main.exe
        ntdll.dll => /c/Windows/SYSTEM32/ntdll.dll (0x7ffe54790000)
        KERNEL32.DLL => /c/Windows/System32/KERNEL32.DLL (0x7ffe53cd0000)
        KERNELBASE.dll => /c/Windows/System32/KERNELBASE.dll (0x7ffe520d0000)
        msvcrt.dll => /c/Windows/System32/msvcrt.dll (0x7ffe529c0000)
        libraylib.dll => /mingw64/bin/libraylib.dll (0x7ffdfa970000)
        GDI32.dll => /c/Windows/System32/GDI32.dll (0x7ffe53a10000)
        win32u.dll => /c/Windows/System32/win32u.dll (0x7ffe51f90000)
        gdi32full.dll => /c/Windows/System32/gdi32full.dll (0x7ffe51fc0000)
        msvcp_win.dll => /c/Windows/System32/msvcp_win.dll (0x7ffe523a0000)
        ucrtbase.dll => /c/Windows/System32/ucrtbase.dll (0x7ffe52580000)
        USER32.dll => /c/Windows/System32/USER32.dll (0x7ffe53870000)
        SHELL32.dll => /c/Windows/System32/SHELL32.dll (0x7ffe54000000)
        WINMM.dll => /c/Windows/SYSTEM32/WINMM.dll (0x7ffe4d910000)
        libgcc_s_seh-1.dll => /c/Program Files/Qalculate/libgcc_s_seh-1.dll (0x7ffe2b680000)  
        libwinpthread-1.dll => /c/Program Files/Qalculate/libwinpthread-1.dll (0x7ffe31030000)

(Also, wth is with it depending on qalc?)

It seems there is some missing build configuration, some libraries could be statically linked or just avoided. Afair, the only Windows dependencies should be:

KERNEL32.DLL
USER32.DLL
GDI32.DLL
SHELL32.dll
WINMM.dll

In any case, I see most of those libraries are related...
