debug/gdb: add option to enable/disable the IPA lib for gdbserver

gdbserver >= 7.2 comes with an optional library to use tracepoints, the
In Process Agent (IPA) library, libinproctrace.so.

Currently, we build gdbserver staticaly, but that breaks the build of
the IPA lib.

Add an option to biuld the IPA lib, but not if statically linking.

      In case you have trouble with dynamic loading of shared libraries,
yann@175
    23
      you will find that a static gdbserver comes in handy.

      Note: Currently, building this library is not possible when the
yann@2986
    37
            gdbserver is built statically. This is a limitation in
yann@2986
    38
            crosstool-NG, so do not bug upstream about it...
