wasm32: Default to a "static" relocation model

LLVM 9 is adding support for a "pic" relocation model for wasm code,
which is quite different than the current model. In order to preserve
the mode of compilation that we have today default to "static" to ensure
that we don't accidentally start creating experimental relocatable
binaries.
