data: Do not enable PIE when linking static programs
It seems like at least glibc does not support statically linked PIE
programs, and produces random junk. Disable globally for now, if
there's a desire to enable static PIE binaries, which is known to
work on some architectures (such as musl-based ones) we can add
specialized specs files in the future.
Closes: #843714
Proposed-by: Szabolcs Nagy <nsz@port70.net>
