[PATCH 2/2] ltmain.in: defer warn dependency to static library

When linking old library to any libtool target that is not an
executable, libtool warns that it might not be portable, in particular
because shared libraries need PIC from the static library to be working.

However, when adding an old library as dependency to a static libtool
library, there is no linkage, and thus no portability issue, so there's
no reason to warn. If the static libtool library is then linked to a
shared library, the dependency will be forwarded and the warning will
happen at this time.
