Disable static + thread-safe on Windows w/ CMake (#3622)
The thread-safety feature on Windows requires a hook in DllMain() and thus is only available when HDF5 is built as a shared library. This was previously a warning, but has now been elevated to a fatal error that cannot be overridden with ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED. Fixes GitHub #3613

Configuration:
-------------
+ - Thread-safety + static library disabled on Windows w/ CMake
+
+ The thread-safety feature requires hooks in DllMain(), which is only
+ present in the shared library.
+
+ We previously just warned about this, but now any CMake configuration
+ that tries to build thread-safety and the static library will fail.
+ This cannot be overridden with ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED.
+
+ Fixes GitHub issue #3613

- Autotools builds now build the szip filter by default when an appropriate
library is found
