Subject: perf: autodetect libbfd
From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@xxxxxxxxx>

Since the C++ demangling isn't needed for everybody and bfd/iberty
aren't widely/easily available on all machines, make it optional.

It allows you to forcefully disable demangling by using NO_DEMANGLE=1
and otherwise tries to detect libbfd/libiberty combinations that
result in a compiling demangler.
