If LibUV_USE_STATIC is set then the static libuv library will be
preferred to the shared library. This is useful when building with the
bundled libuv but is less useful when building with a system libuv.
Explicitly try to find the static libuv library first.
This might be considered a hack and if it weren't a single-use module it
might be preferable to control static versus shared preferences with a
configuration variable.
