##### Visual Studio Dynamic vs Static Runtimes #####
By default, new Visual Studio projects link the C runtimes dynamically
but Google Test links them statically.
This will generate an error that looks something like the following:
gtest.lib(gtest-all.obj) : error LNK2038: mismatch detected for 'RuntimeLibrary': value 'MTd_StaticDebug' doesn't match value 'MDd_DynamicDebug' in main.obj
Google Test already has a CMake option for this: `gtest_force_shared_crt`
Enabling this option will make gtest link the runtimes dynamically too,
and match the project in which it is included.
