docs: add static vs dynamic docs, cargo-c instructions

This commit details our current thinking w.r.t static vs dynamic linking
for rustls-ffi. It also adds initial documentation of using `cargo-c` to
build a dynamic library. In particular we emphasize that:

a) we make **no** ABI stability guarantees
b) the dynamic library/cargo-c support is considered experimental

+## Static Library
+
+In its current for rustls-ffi's `Makefile` infrastructure will generate a static 
+system library (e.g. `--crate-type=staticlib`), producing a `.a` or `.lib` file
+(depending on the OS). 
+
+We recommend using rustls-ffi as a static library as we  make no guarantees of 
+[ABI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_binary_interface) stability across 
+versions at this time, and dynamic library support is considered **experimental**.

+## Dynamic Library
+
+Using rustls-ffi as a static library has some downsides. Notably each application
+that links the static library will need to be rebuilt for each update to rustls-ffi,
+and duplicated copies of rustls-ffi will be included in each application.
+
+Building rustls-ffi as a dynamic library (`--crate-type=cdylib`) can resolve these 
+issues, however this approach comes with its own trade-offs. We currently consider
+this option **experimental**.
+
+### ABI Stability
+
+At this time rustls-ffi makes **no** guarantees about 
+[ABI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_binary_interface)  stability.
+Each release of rustls-ffi may introduce breaking changes to the ABI and so
+the built library should use the exact rustls-ffi version as the dynamic library
+[SONAME](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soname).
+
+### Building a Dynamic Library
+
+Since building a useful dynamic library is more complex than building a static 
+library, rustls-ffi uses [cargo-ci](https://github.com/lu-zero/cargo-c) in place
+of the `Makefile` system used for the static library.
+
+This takes care of:
+* Generating the `rustls.h` header file.
+* Building a `.so` or `.dylib` file (depending on the OS).
+* Generating a [pkg-config](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config/) `.pc` file.
+* Installing the library and header files in the appropriate location.
+
+If your operating system doesn't package `cargo-c` natively 
+(see [package availability](https://github.com/lu-zero/cargo-c#availability)), 
+you can install it with:
+
+    cargo install cargo-c
+
+To build a dynamic library in optimized mode:
+
+    cargo capi build --release
+
+To install in `/usr/local/`:
+
+    sudo cargo capi install
+
+To build a static library in debug mode:
+
+    cargo capi build
+
+To link against the resulting dynamic library, use `pkg-config` to populate your 
+`LDLIBS` and `CFLAGS` as appropriate:
+
+    pkg-config --libs rustls
+    pkg-config --cflags rustls

 # Overview
 
 Rustls doesn't do any I/O on its own. It provides the protocol handling, and
