gdb: fix builds with internal readline and no static libraries
If gdb was configured to use the internal readline but static libraries were disabled, gdb wouldn't dutifully not build libreadline.a which was a problem when it tried to link with that library. Solve this by ensuring --enable-static is passed to the readline configure. Signed-off-by: Ross Burton <ross.burton@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
