CMake: link gost.so statically to its caller
If any executable loads `gost.so`, the executable already either has `libcrypto.so` loaded or is statically linked against `libcrypto.a`. Anyway it already has all libcrypto (and libssl) symbols present. Without this patch `gost.so` is linked against `libcrypto,so`. As a result, a diamond dependency is introduced. If `gost.so` is then loaded by an executable which is statically linked against libcrypto, `ld` will insist on loading `libcripto.so`, despite the executable already having all necessary symbols. When the executable is statically linked, shared objects for libcrypto and libssl are usually not built, `ls` won't find them, and the caller will crush. The patch removes this unnecessary link dependency in `gost.so`, allowing it to be used by executables which are statically linked against libcrypto.
