This PR restricts link function at runtime on Windows submatches to static scope to remove redundant matches for dynamic scope. Basically, some capa rules had logic to match both direct API calls and resolution of those APIs via dynamic linking. This results in redundant matches when matching dynamic scope because the logic matches both the dynamic link and the invocation. These usually match within a few traced calls of each other.
