 DynFlags: remove Opt_Static

 There are currently 2 different ways to test for a static or dynamic
 build:

     * Test if WayDyn is in ways
     * Test if Opt_Static is set

 The problem is that these can easily go out of sync, especially when
 using the
 GHC API.

 This commit replaces all queries of Opt_Static with an equivalent query
 of
 WayDyn. This would have prevented bug #8294 and fixes #11154.
