build: statically link ArgumentParserToolInfo always #424

Now that windows supports static linking as well (to a certain degree),
alter the build of swift-argument-parser in CMake to use static linking
for ArgumentParserToolInfo always irrespective of whether ArgumentParser
is being built as a static library or a dynamic library. On Windows, in
release mode, this saves ~32KiB. Additionally, because no tool directly
links against this library, no binaries are further expanded by static
linking, and we have one less file to distribute.

Replace this paragraph with a description of your changes and rationale. Provide links to an existing issue or external references/discussions, if appropriate.

Checklist

  • I've added at least one test that validates that my change is working, if appropriate
  • I've followed the code style of the rest of the project
  • I've read the Contribution Guidelines
  • I've updated the documentation if necessary

This will need some coordination with swift-installer-scripts; I'll write up a patch for that as well. Just wanted to run this past @natecook1000 to make sure that this seems reasonable.

Seems like this will need to go in first with a tag to allow the remainder to go forward.

Oh, and for reference, the full joined thing was tested in swiftlang/swift#41914.
