Subject: [PATCH] fix musl-gcc.specs.sh to correctly handle -static-pie

Hello,

Today I wanted to use musl-gcc to build -static-pie binaries. I noticed
that this does not work (musl-libc is still linked as a shared library
and is also still requested as an interpreter).

Looking into the musl-gcc.specs file the bug was obvious: rcrt1.o was
not used as a startfile, and neither -no-dynamic-linker nor -static were
passed to the linker.

This patch fixes this by actually using rcrt1.o and passing the linker
options when -static-pie is given.

I don't have much experience with the specifics of gcc .spec files and
which options need to be passed, but this seems to work with all
variations of -shared, -static, and -static-pie that I've tried.

Here (https://github.com/Ferdi265/musl) is the repository with the patch
on GitHub, and I've also attached the patch below.

Greetings,
Ferdinand "Ferdi265" Bachmann
