Statically linking libevdev

Statically linking libevdev.a is not recommended.

Symbol visibility is difficult to control in a static library, so extra care must be taken to only use symbols that are explicitly exported. libevdev's API stability guarantee only applies to those symbols.

If you do link libevdev statically, note that in addition to the exported symbols, libevdev reserves the libevdev* namespace. Do not use or create symbols with that prefix, they are subject to change at any time.
