Let's assume that all libtool files have a consistent format and contain
a line stating 'shouldnotlink=(yes|no)'. We use that to distinguish
modules from libraries, so we can as well use it to validate the .la
file to avoid removing non-libtool .la files.
This should also make the big 'if' a bit more readable.
Note: this is '-w' patch, since a large block of code was reindented.
