recipes-kernel: make perf a standalone package
perf has been coupled to the kernel packages via kernel.bbclass. While maintaining the build of perf out of the kernel source tree is desired the package coupling has proved to be awkward in several situations such as: - when a kernel recipe doesn't want to build/provide perf - when licensing of dependencies would prohibit perf and hence the kernel from being built. To solve some of these problems, this recipe is the extraction of the linux-tools.inc provided perf compilation into a standalone perf recipe that builds out of the kernel source, but is otherwise independent. No new functionality is provided above what the linux-tools.inc variant provided, but the separate recipe provides baseline for adding new functionality.
