Move static feature out of perf features (astral-sh#13265)

astral-sh#5577 fixed a bug on macos due to dynamically linking lzma/xz through
static linking. In astral-sh#7686, this feature was moved to the performance
category.

This PR moves the `xz2/static` back to the general default features,
and, inspired by Homebrew/homebrew-core#222211,
it structures and documents the feature flags cleaner.

We need to take care that this feature does not accidentally disable
features we want.
