Do not add linker flags to the global CMake static library tool (aka
"static linker") (e.g. `ar`) flags list. They don't mix well. This was
only done after successfully detecting GSSAPI.

Linker flags seen on Old Linux CI:
```
-- |GSS_LINKER_FLAGS|-Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/heimdal|
-- |CMAKE_STATIC_LINKER_FLAGS| -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/heimdal|
```

Causing:
```

This problem is invisible at the moment because of another bug (#13698)
that misses building unit tests when not using either the
`ENABLE_DEBUG=ON` or `ENABLE_CURLDEBUG=ON` options (to set
`-DCURLDEBUG`):
```
test 1300 SKIPPED: curl lacks unittest support
```
Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/9135571781/job/25123104557#step:9:2883

With that fixed, this becomes the next issue.

It's possible this bug also required an older CMake version and/or
a specific OS environment which uses linker flags in GSSAPI that are not
playing well with `ar` options, to reproduce.
