[OE-core] [PATCH 3/4] insane.bbclass: Add test for static .a libraries in non-staticdev packages

[Saul Wold]

This check verifies that non staticdev and non pic packages do not
have static libraries in them. There are a few exceptions for the
libgcc-dev and libgcov-dev packages which are whitelisted, also the
*_nonshared.a need to be part of their respective -dev packages.

This is currently a warning to work out any other issues in the upper
layers but will be moved to ERROR at somepoint in the future.
