Fixes #1276
We've been using this patch in conda-forge since about 6 weeks, though in fairness, most of our builds rely on CMake metadata rather than pkg-config. Still, some basic tests of validating the grpc pkgconfig (which points to abseil) shows that the principle works.
Would be nice to have accurate metadata even for shared builds on windows.
