-    Patch the Windows build toolchain to generate unique PDB names
-
-    When the PDB files generated by the `static_library` build are
-    packaged for distribution they are all copied to a single folder,
-    some of the PDB files have identical names so they end up
-    overwriting each other. The missing PDB files cause linker warnings
-    when building Electron in Release mode, and make it more difficult
-    to debug release builds.
-
-    This patch modifies the PDB naming convention for the
-    `static_library` build configuration to ensure PDB names are unique.
-    For example, instead of generating `obj/ui/base/base_cc.pdb` the
-    build will now generate `obj/ui/base/obj_ui_base_base_cc.pdb`.
