[Bug 410261] [NEW] do not ship .la and .a files in pkglibdir for plugins

[Alexander Sack]

Public bug reported:

this wastes space on a CD and nobody is supposed to link against them
anyway.

e..g.
 dpkg -L modemmanager | egrep "\.a|\.la"
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-zte.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-huawei.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-moto-c.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-huawei.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-gobi.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-hso.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-nokia.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-mbm.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-hso.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-option.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-gobi.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-option.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-generic.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-mbm.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-zte.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-sierra.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-novatel.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-nokia.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-novatel.la
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-moto-c.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-sierra.a
/usr/lib/ModemManager/libmm-plugin-generic.a
