If one typically only boots full disk-images, one wouldn't necessaraly
want to statically link glibc, for the guest-init feature of the
kvmtool. As statically linked glibc triggers haevy security
maintainance.

 Changes since v1:
 - rename CONFIG_HAS_LIBC to CONFIG_GUEST_INIT for clarity
 - use more ifdefs, instead of runtime check of _binary_guest_init_size==0
