Sebastian Parborg bf969834b5 Libs: Fix static libs not getting linked properly on linux
Multiple of our libraries would pull in system libraries that we have static versions of.
These where libxml2 and libz and also libzstd.

I also noticed that the script that was supposed to check on this was not really usable to check for these kinds of things so I updated it.
Now you can run it with `python3.11 tools/check_blender_release/check_release.py -- ../build_linux_release/bin/` and it will check all binaries and libraries that we ship for any system libraries that we don't expect to be linked.

The libraries I'm aware of that pulled in system libs were:
boost
mesa
osl
llvm

(The removed cmake flags for osl was because these were unused and cmake printed warnings)

Blender Dev Tools
#################

This repository is intended for miscellaneous tools, utilities, configurations and
anything that helps with Blender development, but aren't directly related to building Blender.

Some of the tools included may be used stand-alone, others expect Blenders source code to be available.


Usage
=====

While this is a stand-alone repository,
some of the scripts which access Blenders source code assume this repository will be located at
``tools`` within Blenders source code repository. At some point this may be included as a submodule.

Some tools also rely on the ``blender`` binary, this is assumed to be located at: ``../../blender.bin``.
*The root directory of Blender's git repository*


Categories
==========

Check Source
------------

Any tools for scanning source files to report issues with code, style, conventions, deprecated features etc.


Config
------

Configuration for 3rd party applications (IDE's, code-analysis, debugging tools... etc).


Git
---

Scripts and utilities for working with git.


Utils
-----

Programs (scripts) to help with development
(currently for converting formats, creating mouse cursor, updating themes).
