dd399ac9e3 tools/bpf: generate pkg-config file for libbpf
Generate a libbpf.pc file at build time so that users can rely
on pkg-config to find the library, its CFLAGS and LDFLAGS.

e3ca63de8a selftests/bpf: add missing executables to .gitignore
We build test_libbpf with CXX to make sure linking against C++ works.

$ make -s -C tools/lib/bpf
$ git status -sb
? tools/lib/bpf/test_libbpf
$ make -s -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf
$ git status -sb
? tools/lib/bpf/test_libbpf
? tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_libbpf

0c77c04aa9 tools lib bpf: Change FEATURE-DUMP to FEATURE-DUMP.libbpf
Commit ed63f34c02 ("perf tools: Make perf
depend on libbpf") triggers the build of libbpf when building the perf
tools, dynamically creating FEATURE-DUMP.libbpf.

It failed to update the tools/lib/bpf/.gitignore file to have that
prefix, fix it.

1b76c13e4b bpf tools: Introduce 'bpf' library and add bpf feature check
This is the first patch of libbpf. The goal of libbpf is to create a
standard way for accessing eBPF object files. This patch creates
'Makefile' and 'Build' for it, allows 'make' to build libbpf.a and
libbpf.so, 'make install' to put them into proper directories.
Most part of Makefile is borrowed from traceevent.

Before building, it checks the existence of libelf in Makefile, and deny
to build if not found. Instead of throwing an error if libelf not found,
the error raises in a phony target "elfdep". This design is to ensure
'make clean' still workable even if libelf is not found.

Because libbpf requires 'kern_version' field set for 'union bpf_attr'
(bpfdep" is used for that dependency), Kernel BPF API is also checked
by intruducing a new feature check 'bpf' into tools/build/feature,
which checks the existence and version of linux/bpf.h. When building
libbpf, it searches that file from include/uapi/linux in kernel source
tree (controlled by FEATURE_CHECK_CFLAGS-bpf). Since it searches kernel
source tree it reside, installing of newest kernel headers is not
required, except we are trying to port these files to an old kernel.

To avoid checking that file when perf building, the newly introduced
'bpf' feature check doesn't added into FEATURE_TESTS and
FEATURE_DISPLAY by default in tools/build/Makefile.feature, but added
into libbpf's specific.
