Does this PR require a change in the driver versions?
What this PR does / why we need it:
Our CMake files support an
ENABLE_PIC
flag that enforces code to compiled as position-independent. That is triggered in the scope of building the libs as shared objects. However, it's generally not possible to build position-independent executables from static builds of the libs due to the fact that the PIC option is not propagated to any of dependencies when building them bundled.This PR simply makes sure the option is propagated consistently across the bundled libs dependencies.
