windows: fail early with a missing windres in autotools

`windres` is not always auto-detected by autotools when building for
Windows. When this happened, the build failed with a confusing error due
to the empty `RC` command:

```
/bin/bash ../libtool --tag=RC --mode=compile  -I../include -DCURL_EMBED_MANIFEST  -i curl.rc -o curl.o
[...]
Usage: /sandbox/curl/libtool [OPTION]... [MODE-ARG]...
Try 'libtool --help' for more information.
libtool:   error: unrecognised option: '-I../include'
```

Improve this by verifying if `RC` is set, and fail with a clear error
otherwise.
