Commit Message

Assign "-all-static" (instead of "-static") to "static_LDFLAGS" in
Makefile.am, as libtool will only produce a static binary if it is
explicitly told that all of the linked libraries should be static.

BEFORE

$ file static
static: ELF 32-bit LSB pie executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
        dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-musl-i386.so.1,
        not stripped

AFTER

$ file static
static: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
        statically linked, not stripped

REFERENCE

"Another common situation where static linking is desirable is in
 creating a standalone binary. Use libtool to do the linking and
 add the -all-static flag."  --  Libtool Manual, Section 3.7
