devtools/test-meson-build: use shared libraries to save space
Checks
Commit Message
For usability, the default build type in meson is static, so that
binaries can be run from the build directly easily. However, static
builds take more space, so for build-testing purposes default to using
shared builds where possible.

With this patch applied on Debian 9 (Stretch) the space used by a DPDK
checkout and test builds drops from ~2.5G to <1G. [Including space used
by cross compiles]
