Some packages don’t have /bin directories. We should only run
install_name_tool if that directory exists.

This was an early "pre-release" to stable, with a warning that the
interface is not stable yet (thought we don't actually expect it to
change).
We do expect to make many static build fixes, however, which should go
to master and staging, so we merge the cherry-picks back into master so
we can do those fixes against:
git merge-base upstream/master upstream/release-18.09
and merge into both master and release-18.09. This is easier than
cherry-picking when one knows in advance they are targeting multiple
branches.
No files should be changed with this merge.
Adds the static overlay that can be used to build Nixpkgs statically.
Can be used like:
nix build pkgsStatic.hello
Not all packages build, as some rely on dynamic linking.

This is kind of a mess, but basically:
- static=true, shared=true means to build statically but move it to
the static output
- static=true, shared=false means to build statically and leave it in
the main output
- static=false, shared=true means to not build static at all
Confusingly, the old default was static=true, shared=true even though
static=false? Still can’t figure out what was meant by that.

The conditional was incorrect - postInstall script should only hsppen
when enableShared = true.

- makeStaticBinaries don’t work on Darwin (no stable ABI!)
- Need to make sure NIX_CFLAGS_LINK appends
- isStatic is not used anymore

crossOverlays only apply to the packages being built, not the build
packages. It is useful when you don’t care what is used to build your
packages, just what is being built. The idea relies heavily on the
cross compiling infrastructure. Using this implies that we need to
create a cross stdenv.
