Yosys needs static linking of libffi and libreadline for OpenROAD flow #5

The current build of this yosys fork, using the Dockerfile in alpha-release yields a yosys binary that has a dynamic depenency on libffi.so.5

This has been fairly problematic for users on CentOS 7 systems because libffi.so.5 can only be installed on that OS by manually building (yum only lists libffi.so.6 for install on CentOS7). This affected a lot of users during the integration exercise and users at UCSD

Pretty sure this has been resolved by now.
