[BUG] conda libraft package includes static library

Describe the bug
I'm not sure if this is truly a bug, or just a design choice that I don't understand. There is a libraft-static package, and this is where I'd expect to find the libraft.a static library. And it is there. The problem is that it is also in the libraft package. Since this static library is 550 MB, it leads to some pretty significant bloat when people only want the shared library.

Expected behavior
I personally would remove libraft.a from the libraft package, keeping it in libraft-static. I will put up a PR if you agree with this idea.

Environment details (please complete the following information):
conda, rapidsai channel. Full package: libraft-23.12.00-cuda12_231206_g9e2d6277_0/

Thanks @msarahan. You are correct, the libraft-static is only intended to be included in its own static conda package and should not be getting packaged up with the libraft shared library package.
