Use source_sets in component builds and static_library in release builds.

Static libraries don't guarantee that an exported symbol gets linked
into a shared library (and in order to support Chromium's component
build mode, WebRTC needs to be linked as a shared library).

Source sets always pass all the object files to the linker.

On the flip side, source_sets link more object files in release builds
and to avoid this, this CL introduces a the GN template "rtc_library" that
expands to static_library during release builds and to source_set during
component builds.
