meson: Disable libdw for static builds by default
Static QEMU build fails on Debian Bullseye: /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdw.a(debuginfod-client.o): in function `__libdwfl_debuginfod_init': (.text.startup+0x17): undefined reference to `dlopen' The reason is that pkg-config does not suggest -ldl for libdw, and adding --extra-ldflags="-ldl" resolves the issue. However, static linking with libdw is an unclear topic: * Linux perf does it. * Debian's libdw-dev description says: Only link to the static version for special cases and when you don't need anything from the ebl backends. * As the error message above indicates, -ldl is also needed for debuginfod support. The functionality provided by libdw is needed for analyzing performance of JITed code, which is mostly useful to developers and researchers. Therefore, in order to avoid unpleasant surprises for people who don't need this, simply disable libdw for static builds by default. It can still be enabled explicitly if needed.
