perf tools: Warn about missing libelf
When perf detects no libelf during the build, it'll use internal mini
elf parser instead of libelf. But as it only supports minimal
functionalities, it also disables support to 'probe' builtin command.
Currently it didn't warned to user. Fix it.
$ sudo apt-get remove libelf-dev
$ make
CHK -fstack-protector-all
CHK -Wstack-protector
CHK -Wvolatile-register-var
CHK bionic
CHK libelf
CHK glibc
Makefile:491: No libelf found, disables 'probe' tool, please install elfutils-libelf-devel/libelf-dev
CHK libunwind
CHK libaudit
$ make NO_LIBELF=1
CHK -fstack-protector-all
CHK -Wstack-protector
CHK -Wvolatile-register-var
CHK bionic
CHK libaudit
