Use gendef instead of pexports for building windows .def files

Modern msys systems lack pexports but have gendef instead, so use that.

Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3ccde7a9-e4f9-e194-30e0-0936e6ad68ba@dunslane.net

Backpatch to release 9.4 to enable building with perl on older branches.
Before that pexports is not used for plperl.
