- Update to version 2.30:
  * BUGFIX: arm and i386 fixes C and Go setgroups choice - used
    wrong syscall in 2.29.
  * cleaned up make clean and make install to actually work as
    intended
  * updated Gentoo libpsx.pc file from Lars Wendler
  * refactored the way libpsx linkage with libcap performed mutual
    discovery.
  * Previously (2.28) libpsx had an API call overridden by libcap
    using weak linkage function in libpsx. In 2.30 this is reversed,
    namely libpsx provides the stronger function and libcap has a
    weak "no-op" version.
  * a bit more consistency in handling the 'all' sets in libcap
    (C) and libcap/cap (Go). Namely, they both dynamically discover
    the number of capabilities named by the kernel and use this as
    the definition of 'all' for the current runtime.
    + libcap (C) exports cap_max_bit() to export the number of
      supported capabilities
    + libcap/cap (Go) exports cap.MaxBits() for this same value.

- Add glibc-static-devel as build requirement as tests need it
- Install libpsx.a as it seems to be needed in some cases:
