ci: add option to disable building of statically linked binaries

Builds compile dependencies twice if binaries are built statically. Adding
an option to disable static binary builds lets one build the binaries in
the same cargo build as the rest of the Rust crates. This is useful when
we're trying to save time building during integration tests.
