strerror: Revert to local codepage for Windows error string

- Change get_winapi_error() to return the error string in the local
codepage instead of UTF-8 encoding.

Two weeks ago bed5f84 fixed get_winapi_error() to work on xbox, but it
also changed the error string's encoding from local codepage to UTF-8.

We return the local codepage version of the error string because if it
is output to the user's terminal it will likely be with functions which
expect the local codepage (eg fprintf, failf, infof).

This is essentially a partial revert of bed5f84. The support for xbox
remains but the error string is reverted back to local codepage.

src/Makefile.m32: fix undefined curlx_dyn_* errors

by linking `lib/dynbuf.c` when building a static curl binary.
Previously this source file was only included when building
a dynamic curl binary. This was likely possibly because no
functions from the `src/Makefile.inc` / `CURLX_CFILES` sources
were actually required for a curl tool build. This has
recently changed with the introduction of `curlx_dyn_*()`
memory functions and their use by the tool sources.

curl: make sure setopt CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE passes on a long

Previously, it would pass on a define (int) which could make libcurl
read junk as a value - which prevented the CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE option to
"take". This could then make test 2100 do two DoH requests instead of
one!
