LP:618282 - libmysqld.a is not compiled with -fPIC

          Description

          The binary objects in the embedded library (libmysqld.a) are not all compiled with fPIC, this leads to the following error message when attempting to create a position-independant executable (-pie):

          /usr/bin/ld: /opt/mariadb/lib/mysql/libmysqld.a(my_new.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

          I can recompile manually mariadb by adding -fPIC to CFLAGS, but it would be nice to have this option turned on in the binary Linux distribution as well.
