[openexr ]openexr/2.5.7: LNK2019 on windows

[domin144]

Description

When using meson (or using pkg-config in any other way) on Windows, openexr libraries cannot be found.
This is caused by openexr.pc and OpenEXR.pc name config on Windows. Linux is not affected.
This is discussed in conan-io/conan#14428
conan-openexr-example.zip

You can submit a PR for openexr 2.x recipes forcing pkg_config_name of its global cpp_info to some specific value like openexr_conan or openexr_do_not_use which would avoid OpenEXR.pc file of openexr_ilmimf component to be overwritten.
