Hello, thanks for the new iteration of review!

I deleted unused box.lua script and reference to it in suite.ini
at static-build tests. I added comments about explicitly setting
compilers at static-build/CMakeLists.txt.

Also I fixed building libncurses/libcurses for correct work of
FindCurses.cmake module. After this change there is no need to set
CURSES_NEED_NCURSES at cmake/FindReadline.cmake, so I checkouted
cmake/FindReadline.cmake from master and update patch commit massage.

And fixed .travis.mk static_build_cmake_* jobs - build tarantool
with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo cmake option.


Here is a new commit message (deleted part about CURSES_NEED_NCURSES):

build: refactor static build process

Refactored static build process to use static-build/CMakeLists.txt
instead of Dockerfile.staticbuild (this allows to support static
build on macOS). Following third-party dependencies for static build
are installed via cmake `ExternalProject_Add`:
    - OpenSSL
    - Zlib
    - Ncurses
    - Readline
    - Unwind
    - ICU

* Added support static build for macOS
* Fixed `CONFIGURE_COMMAND` while building bundled libcurl for staic
    build at file cmake/BuildLibCURL.cmake:
    - disable building shared libcurl libraries (by setting
        `--disable-shared` option)
    - disable hiding libcurl symbols (by setting
        `--disable-symbol-hiding` option)
    - prevent linking libcurl with system libz by settign
        `--with-zlib=${FOUND_ZLIB_ROOT_DIR}` option)
* Removed Dockerfile.staticbuild
* Added new gitlab.ci jobs to test new style static build:
    - static_build_cmake_linux
    - static_build_cmake_osx_15
* Removed static_docker_build gitlab.ci job

Closes #5095
