This reverts commit a71bda9adb.

This ensures that solution files have correctly numbered icons in
Windows Explorer.

5f7ad995af introduced an issue where the
string of external libraries would be escaped in one go. This is
incorrect, because only the individual paths should be escaped. The
semicolons separating each path should not be escaped.

Without the BOM, VS assumes UTF-8 strings (subproject file names etc.)
are ansi-encoded.

When building a static library, VS2019 replaces the generated link pdb file with the one created during compilation due to a broken copy step in Microsoft.CppCommon.targets. This workaround generates the pdb in the output directory so the copy step is skipped.
