windows: clarify the need for invalidcontinue.obj

Git's source code wants to be able to close() the same file descriptor
multiple times, ignoring the error returned by the second call (and the
ones after that), or to access the osfhandle of an already-closed stdout,
among other things that the UCRT does not like.

Simply linking invalidcontinue.obj allows such usage without resorting to
Debug Assertions (or exiting with exit code 9 in Release Mode).

Let's add a note so we don't forget, as suggested by Jeff Hostetler.

details.
