Try building and linking the LOOT API as a static library with static runtime linking #7

Suggested in wrye-bash/CBash#7, this would solve linking problems with standalone Wrye Bash executables and also simplify its usage of the LOOT API.

Well, this seems to be working on Windows, but needs LOOT and some of its dependencies to be compiled with the -fPIC flag for it to link on Linux, and then still fails with ImportError: ./loot_api.so: undefined symbol: curl_easy_perform. Libcurl is used by libgit2, which is a dependency of the LOOT API.

Closing this as it's not suitable for Wrye Bash's standalone builds, and Wrye Bash was the intended use-case.
