arch: BINFMT_FLAT_SHARED is not really shared for buildroot purposes
Although BINFMT_FLAT_SHARED is indeed a shared library format, it does not support dynamic library loading with dlopen(). So for buildroot purposes, BR2_STATIC_LIBS shouldn't be selected. As it happens, the compiler options that are added for BINFMT_FLAT_SHARED also make the compiler ignore the -static option, so we can simply force BR2_STATIC_LIBS and things work out perfectly. Therefore, remove the select of BR2_BINFMT_SUPPORTS_SHARED from BINFMT_FLAT_SHARED, which in turn makes sure that BR2_STATIC_LIBS is selected.
