Subject: [PATCH] let "configure --disable-shared" work once again

Without this change, ./autogen.sh --disable-shared && make would
evoke a "can not build a shared library" failure for libvirtmod.la.
However, without the -shared link option in python/Makefile.am,
it was possible to install non-functional python support.  Instead,
make --disable-shared also disable building python.

* configure.ac: Make --disable-shared imply --without-python and
silently override --with-python.
* python/Makefile.am (libvirtmod_la_LDFLAGS): Do not use -shared.
This reverts 8838ee39ab1c2bb7fffe93bfda220692664e8be6.
