Make --enable-dynamic a tristate option.

Browse source 
Some programs will by default be linked against static
liblzma and some against shared liblzma. --enable-dynamic
now allows overriding the default to both directions
(all dynamic or all static) even when building both
shared and static liblzma.

This is quite messy compared to how simple thing it is supposed
to be. The complexity is mostly due to Windows support.

# xz/xzdec/lzmadec linkage against liblzma #
############################################
# Link the command line tool statically against liblzma unless using
# --enable-dynamic. Using static liblzma gives a little bit faster executable
# on x86, because no register is wasted for PIC. We also have one dependency
# less, which allows users to more freely copy the xz binary to other boxes.
# However, I wouldn't be surprised if distro maintainers still prefer dynamic
# linking, so let's make it easy for them.
