Configuration - Add exception about static libraries to OCCT license
Description
OCCT allows to create static version of libraries, however it does not allow to use them in any kind of project except LGPL ones which makes OCCT quite impractical and makes features like webassembly merely a toy.
OCCT license represents a modification of the general LGPL license and adds some exceptions to it.
Add exception about static libraries like some open source projects do.
e.g. to use, copy, link, modify and distribute under own terms the binary object code of combined work of something like this.
