Windows users unable to use bevy/dynamic at all on latest

[BrainBacon]

Bevy version

0.6.0

Operating system & version

Windows 10

What you did

Run -features=bevy/dynamic on stable rust.
Attempt to compile on nightly.

What you expected to happen

Windows users should be able to use bevy/dynamic on latest.

What actually happened

Running -features=bevy/dynamic on stable or Rust will fail. In stable there is the LNK1189 error.

On nightly compilation will fail because of the unreachable format error.

Additional information

-Zshare-generics=off is not available on stable, so we currently can't run there, then nightly is unavailable until that PR is part of a release.

As it stands I don't see a way to use dynamic features at all on Windows using latest.

I realize this is a duplicate of both #1110 and the PR fixed in #3889 but together they cause this catch 22.

@cart this is a good argument to cut 0.6.1 with that fix IMO.

[alice-i-cecile]

For now, the best workaround is going to be to use main, with the patch strategy noted in the Cheatbook to ensure you can still use plugins.

[alice-i-cecile]

We're planning to release 0.6.1 to backport this fix. I'm going to close this out because it's fixed on main.

I'm on Windows 10 with Bevy 0.7 and no luck:

...  
= note: LINK : fatal error LNK1189: library limit of 65535 objects exceeded
error: could not compile `bevy_dylib` due to previous error

same setup and error for me

Actually; keeping this closed. #1110 is the place for ongoing discussions.
