Jiri Olsa d7a3d85e08 perf build: Do not fail on missing Build file
Allow nesting into directories without Build file. Currently we force
include of the Build file, which fails the build when the Build file is
missing.

We already support empty *-in.o' objects if there's nothing in the
directory to be compiled, so we can just use it for missing Build file
cases.

Also adding this case under tests.

Jiri Olsa c819e2cf2e tools build: Add new build support
Adding new build framework into 'tools/build' to be used by tools.

There's no change for actual building at this point, it comes in the
next patches.

The idea and more details are explained in the
'tools/build/Documentation/Build.txt' file.

I adopted everything from the kernel build system, with some changes to
allow for multiple binaries build definitions.

While the kernel's build output is single image (forget modules) we need
to be able to build several binaries/libraries.

The basic idea is that sser provides 'Build' files with objects
definitions like:

  perf-y += a.o
  perf-y += b.o
  libperf-y += c.o
  libperf-y += d.o

and the build framework outputs files:

  perf-in.o    # a.o, b.o compiled in
  libperf-in.o # c.o, d.o compiled in
