665e13c85e Rename BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS
Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed
from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static
libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user
had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static
libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some
time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
should really build everything with static libraries.

As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly.

This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select
shared, shared+static or just static.

Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by
simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

1f2d661854 apr: needs mmu
Uses fork() in apr_proc_fork() which is used by almost all the packages
that use apr (log4cxx, subversion).
apr-util doesn't use fork or apr_proc_fork but it's of no use alone.

[Peter: also hide log4cxx comment if !BR2_USE_MMU]

02b00dc9df apr: requires shared library support
The apr library requires shared library support unconditionally, so
make it depend on !BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB, so that architectures that
support static libraries only do not make this package available.
