-DFORCE_STATIC=OFF does not have effect, lib is still built as static

List of files that get installed on macOS:

From what I understand, -DFORCE_STATIC is not the default, however even passing -DFORCE_STATIC=OFF explicitly has no effect, and static libs are built.

The default is prefer static linkage. -DFORCE_STATIC means fail to compile if dependencies are only available dynamically.

@kpu Got it, thank you. But compiling dylib is still supported as an option or not?
