Possibly fixed bug 2250 - Cmake: SDL2 Doesn't install DLLs on Windows

ernest.lee [Exec] CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:151 (FILE): [13:37:43][Exec] file INSTALL cannot find [13:37:43][Exec] "C:/TeamCity/buildAgent/work/2e3d17a492e75daf/Build/libSDL2.so". The cmake INSTALL project doesn't work because it uses Linux so shared library paths. Windows uses dlls and I think cygwin also uses dlls. I've included this patch. Can you check if it works?
