[PATCH v3] perf test: Skip sigtrap test on old kernels

[Namhyung Kim]

If it runs on an old kernel, perf_event_open would fail because of the
new fields sigtrap and sig_data.  Just skipping the test could miss an
actual bug in the kernel.

Let's check BTF if it has the perf_event_attr.sigtrap field.
