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. Patches 1 to 5 add static libraries for existing parts of the perf build. Patch 6 adds the python build using libraries rather than C source files. Patch 7 cleans up the python dependencies and removes the no longer needed python-ext-sources.
