Allow user not to install llvm shared object #53852

Closed

Description

@Keruspe

Current rust nightly installs /usr/lib/libLLVM-7.so. This will cause conflict with the system-provided llvm as soon as llvm 7 is packaged.
It is thus impossible to use the rust-provided llvm in a future-proof way for system packages, making it mandatory to use the system-provided llvm (lacking rust patches).

It would be great to provide a way to use static linking like before (even if that means duplicating work with the thinLTO stuff).
