Describe the bug

The attempt to execute simple Java application with cedar-java-uber dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.cedarpolicy</groupId>
    <artifactId>cedar-java</artifactId>
    <classifier>uber</classifier>
    <version>4.3.0</version>
</dependency>

on Windows 10 environment fails with UnsatisfiedLinkError. Looks like the dll does not export the Java functions.

Probably the cause can be in zigbuild usage.
For the bundled dll the dumpbin shows

dumpbin /EXPORTS dlls/original/cedar_java_ffi.dll

The same Java code works successfully with cedar_java_ffi.dll built locally using

cargo build --features partial-eval --release --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu

and forced using CEDAR_JAVA_FFI_LIB env variable.

The dumpbin for this dll shows the exported Java functions
