Draft: contrib: prefer static linking of libraries found by Meson

Steve Lhomme requested to merge robUx4/vlc:contrib-meson-static into master

For all libraries we build in contribs we want the static library version so our binaries can be distributed.

The --prefer-static option tries to use system libraries as static libraries when both variants are possible [1]. We don't want to have to distribute the dynamic libraries it may find during contrib builds.
