deps: reintroduce supporting shared c-ares builds

As of cc192f0e we've now in sync with upstream which means that we
also can allow our users to build against a shared version of c-ares.

Note: It is still up to users to make sure that the library version
is on par with what Node.js bundles.

This "reverts" commit 25fa5c4.
