complibs: disable building shared libs

Managing the shared version of the companion libraries
has become cumbersome.

Also, it will one day be possible to use the companion
libraries from the host distribution, and then we will
be able to easily use either shared or static libs.

As a side note, while working on the canadian-rework
series, it has become quite more complex to properly
handle shared companion libraries, as they need to be
built both for the build and gost systems. That's not
easy to handle. At all.

    24 Patches should come with the appropriate SoB line. A SoB line is typically
