For usability, the default build type in meson is static, so that
binaries can be run from the build directory easily. However, static
builds take more space, so for build-testing purposes default to using
shared builds where possible.

With this patch applied on Debian 9 (Stretch) the space used by a DPDK
checkout and test builds drops from ~2.5G to <1G. [Including space used
by cross compiles]
