perf tools: Call clang to compile C source to object code

This is the core patch for supporting eBPF on-the-fly compiling, does
the following work:

1. Search clang compiler using search_program().

2. Run command template defined in llvm-bpf-cmd-template option in
[llvm] config section using read_from_pipe(). Patch of clang and
source code path is injected into shell command using environment
variable using force_set_env().

Commiter notice:

When building with DEBUG=1 we get a compiler error that gets fixed with
the same approach described in commit b236512280fb:

perf kmem: Fix compiler warning about may be accessing uninitialized variable

The last argument to strtok_r doesn't need to be initialized, its
just a placeholder to make this routine reentrant, but gcc doesn't know
about that and complains, breaking the build, fix it by setting it to
NULL.
