There's nothing kernel-version-specific about the perf_3.4 recipe, so
it's actually misnamed and misleading now that it also gets used with
the 3.8 kernel.
Since the recipe isn't tied to a specific PV, and simply uses
whatever's in STAGING_KERNEL_DIR, there's no reason to add anything
else either to the bare PN, so just use that as the recipe name.

The contents of perf.inc are really specific to perf features and
shouldn't use the generic perf.inc name, which implies common recipe
code. It's always confusing to open up this file and find out that's
not what it is.

Autobuilder builds periodically and now more frequently have been
failing because of a race between the perf build and the newly
separated libtraceevent - perf tries to link libtraceevent.a, which
hasn't finished building yet in those cases.
This disables the parallel build to prevent that.

There are a number of scripts in the perf installation that use bash,
so we need to add a run-time dependency on bash for them. If not, we
can generate build errors like "no package provides /bin/bash".
Fixes [YOCTO #3951].

This also fixes a library issue on older kernels building with
a newer toolchain where libaries that would previously be pulled
in are no longer. So we add them manually.

Add a new feature named 'perf-tui'. Adding this into the
PERF_FEATURES variable in perf.inc will enable the perf TUI (Text-base
UI) user interface on a target, which adds libnewt and turns on the
perf text UI options in perf, if perf is included in an image.
If 'perf-tui' isn't named as a feature (the default), the perf TUI
will be disabled and unavailable.

Add support to enable the perf Perl binding.
The build depends on perl-native to retrieve the configuration
settings needed for the binding. cpan-base adds some useful functions
like is_target() and get_perl_version() that we need for
PERLCONFIGTARGET and related settings, which allow us to use the
target's Config_heavy.pl settings for ExtUtils:Embed when building for
the target.
Also adds the perl-modules dependency to give the target the perl
modules that scripts using the binding need.

perf has been coupled to the kernel packages via kernel.bbclass.
While maintaining the build of perf out of the kernel source tree
is desired the package coupling has proved to be awkward in
several situations such as:
- when a kernel recipe doesn't want to build/provide perf
- when licensing of dependencies would prohibit perf and hence
the kernel from being built.
To solve some of these problems, this recipe is the extraction of
the linux-tools.inc provided perf compilation into a standalone
perf recipe that builds out of the kernel source, but is otherwise
independent.
No new functionality is provided above what the linux-tools.inc
variant provided, but the separate recipe provides baseline for
adding new functionality.
