Patchelf is now built dynamically
Until a few commits ago, PatchELF was built statically because it was used to patch `libstdc++' at the end of the GCC building phase, but PatchELF also depends on `libstdc++', so it would crash. However, recently when patching the GCC libraries, we don't directly apply Patchelf to the library, first we copy it to a temporary place, do the patching, then put it in its proper place. So the problem above won't happen any more. With this commit, I am thus removing the static flag from patchelf and letting it built dynamically all the time. The main problem was that some systems don't have a static C++ library, so PatchELF couldn't be built statically. Instead of adding more checks, we just fixed the core foundation of the problem.
