Hi, I'm noticing on Windows that sdl builds both the dll + static version of sdl even though I set:

set(SDL_SHARED OFF FORCE)
set(SDL_STATIC ON FORCE)

What would be ideal is that in this case, the static library is built with the name 'SDL2.lib' instead of the usual 'SDL2-static.lib'

This shouldn't be hard a fix, and would make it easier to pick up static builds of sdl
