There are times that it would be helpful for users to rely on wildcard 
expansion, but unlike Unix (Linux/MacOS), you can't count on Windows shells to 
do the expansion for you.

I was reading a bit about this and found: 
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8bch7bkk.aspx

This seems to imply that in the src/oiiotool/CMakeLists.txt, we could just add 
this special '/link setargv.obj' and the resulting oiiotool would magically 
expand its command line wildcard arguments in argv.

But... I'm so not a windows programmer, and can't easily test it, either. Where 
does setargv.obj live? Is it on every Windows system? Does it work just like on 
that example command they showed, or would I need a complete path? If the 
latter, to where?

Does this make enough sense for anybody out there with Windows chops to tell me 
exactly what to do, or to try it themselves and submit a PR?
