Jiri Olsa 0a4f2b6a3b perf tools: Setup default dwarf post unwinder
Factor NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND makefile variable and code that selects
default DWARf post unwinder based on detected features (libdw and
libunwind support)

If both are detected the libunwind is selected as default.  Simple
'make' will try to add:

  - libunwind unwinder if present
  - libdw unwinder if present
  - disable dwarf unwind if non of libunwind and libdw
    libraries are present

If one of the DWARF unwind libraries is detected, message is displayed
which one (libunwind/libdw) is compiled in.

Examples:
  - compile in libdw unwinder if present:

    $ make NO_LIBUNWIND=1

  - compile in libdw (with libdw installation directory) unwinder if present:

    $ make LIBDW_DIR=/opt/elfutils/ NO_LIBUNWIND=1
      BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build

    Auto-detecting system features:
    ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
    ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
    ...                          gtk2: [ on  ]
    ...                      libaudit: [ on  ]
    ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
    ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
    ...                       libnuma: [ on  ]
    ...                       libperl: [ on  ]
    ...                     libpython: [ on  ]
    ...                      libslang: [ on  ]
    ...                     libunwind: [ on  ]
    ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]
    ...     DWARF post unwind library: libdw

  - disable post dwarf unwind completely:

    $ make NO_LIBUNWIND=1 NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND=1
      BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build

    Auto-detecting system features:
    ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
    ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
    ...                          gtk2: [ on  ]
    ...                      libaudit: [ on  ]
    ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
    ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
    ...                       libnuma: [ on  ]
    ...                       libperl: [ on  ]
    ...                     libpython: [ on  ]
    ...                      libslang: [ on  ]
    ...                     libunwind: [ on  ]
    ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]
    ...     DWARF post unwind library: libunwind
