Dan Stillman 8fb2870f93 Restore dxcompiler.dll on Windows for WebGPU and leave WebGPU pref on
mozinference (which is currently CPU-only) is better for many tasks, but
plugins may want WebGPU for some features (e.g., chatbots), so just
follow Firefox, which currently enables it by default for Windows and
Apple Silicon macOS. Adds 5.8 MB compressed to the Windows installer.
