Subject: [PATCH] Use correct libraries when compiling statically (#2136)

When compiling statically, cmake pulls shared libraries as dependencies
for drogon e.g. libpq.so instead of libpq.a. This causes linkage errors
when compiling the whole program.

The flag USE_STATIC_LIBS_ONLY should set the CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES
to the appropriate suffix on different platforms, thus find_* commands
find the right library.
