Refactor the perf python module build to instead of building C files
it links libraries. To support this make static libraries for tests,
ui, util and pmu-events. Doing this allows fewer functions to be
stubbed out, importantly parse_events is no longer stubbed out which
will improve the ability to work with heterogeneous cores.
By not building .c files for the python module and for the build of
perf, this should also help build times.
Patch 1 adds '*.a' cleanup to the clean target.
Patches 2 to 6 add static libraries for existing parts of the perf
build.
Patch 7 adds the python build using libraries rather than C source
files.
Patch 8 cleans up the python dependencies and removes the no longer
needed python-ext-sources.
v3: Add missed xtensa directory for the util build. Remove adding the
arch directory to perf-y as it creates an empty object file that
breaks with GCC and LTO.
v2: Add '*.a' cleanup to clean target. Add reviewed-by James Clark.
