[PATCH v2] perf build: Install libbpf headers locally when building

From: Quentin Monnet
Date: Sat Nov 06 2021 - 20:25:41 EST


API headers from libbpf should not be accessed directly from the
library's source directory. Instead, they should be exported with "make
install_headers". Let's adjust perf's Makefile to install those headers
locally when building libbpf.

v2:
- Fix $(LIBBPF_OUTPUT) when $(OUTPUT) is null.
- Make sure the recipe for $(LIBBPF_OUTPUT) is not under a "ifdef".
