Fixes.#3060

Issue
On Windows with non-MSVC compilers (e.g., Rust with MinGW), MuJoCo callback symbols (mju_user_* and mjcb_*) fail to link. The import library only contains _imp symbols, not direct symbols, causing link errors like:

error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol mju_user_error referenced in function...
Root Cause
Windows __declspec(dllimport/dllexport) treats global variables differently from functions:

Functions: Creates both direct symbol AND _imp entry
Global Variables: Only creates _imp entry in import library
Non-MSVC linkers expect direct symbols and fail when they're missing.

Solution
Added getter/setter accessor functions for all callback globals. Functions export correctly on Windows because __declspec creates proper linkable symbols for them.
