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.

As discussed with Thomas
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.uclibc.buildroot/100998
only the current toolchains are broken:
"it's better to blacklist the individual toolchains that are known
to be broken, so that if we add another toolchain, we will be able
to see if the same bug happens as well or not."

Even if the build system were fixed to deal with that it's only really
useful for systemd/udev scenarios with require dynamic libs as well.
For static scenarios people should look at using
CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB in the kernel.

Building crda on NIOS II triggers the infamous _gp linker issue. Since
nobody cared, let's disable this package on NIOS II for the moment.

This patch lines up the comments in Config.in files that clarify which
toolchain options the package depends on.
