Hash :af4b07a5 Message :Avoid transforming base C_FLAGS set deliberately
The CMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG, CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE, CMAKE_C_FLAGS_MINSIZEREL
and CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO options are correctly and deliberately
toggled to use the libcmt (/MT) flag options in place of the usual
msvcrt (/MD) options, but this isn't necessarily desired by the user.
The default choice can be overriden with the EVENT__MSVC_STATIC_RUNTIME
cmake option.
However, the /MD flag that is the choice of CMake only enters into
play for the four types of builds above. If the user introduces another
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE, the base CMAKE_C_FLAGS must not be manipulated, as
that value (and the CMAKE_C_FLAGS_{custom} value) have been explicitly
chosen by the user/developer deploying this library, and the mismatch
between these flags in different dependencies results in link errors.
The CMake build schema itself doesn't place an /MD flag in CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE
so any /M compile option in that variable needs to be retained.
