perf build: Check LLVM version in feature check

Cancel builtin llvm and clang support when LLVM version is less than
3.9.0: following commits uses newer API.

Since Clang/LLVM's API is not guaranteed to be stable, add a
test-llvm-version.cpp feature checker, issue warning if LLVM found in
compiling environment is not tested yet.

Committer Notes:

Testing it:

Environment:

  $ cat /etc/fedora-release
  Fedora release 25 (Twenty Five)
  $ rpm -q llvm-devel clang-devel
  llvm-devel-3.8.0-1.fc25.x86_64
  clang-devel-3.8.0-2.fc25.x86_64
  $

Before:

  $  make -k LIBCLANGLLVM=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build
  Warning: tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h differs from kernel
  Warning: tools/arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h differs from kernel
    INSTALL  GTK UI
    LINK     /tmp/build/perf/perf
  /tmp/build/perf/libperf.a(libperf-in.o): In function `perf::createCompilerInvocation(llvm::SmallVector<char const*, 16u>, llvm::StringRef&, clang::DiagnosticsEngine&)':
  /home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/util/c++/clang.cpp:56: undefined reference to `clang::tooling::newInvocation(clang::DiagnosticsEngine*, llvm::SmallVector<char const*, 16u> const&)'
  /tmp/build/perf/libperf.a(libperf-in.o): In function `perf::getModuleFromSource(llvm::SmallVector<char const*, 16u>, llvm::StringRef, llvm::IntrusiveRefCntPtr<clang::vfs::FileSystem>)':
  /home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/util/c++/clang.cpp:68: undefined reference to `clang::CompilerInstance::CompilerInstance(std::shared_ptr<clang::PCHContainerOperations>, bool)'
  /home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/util/c++/clang.cpp:69: undefined reference to `clang::CompilerInstance::createDiagnostics(clang::DiagnosticConsumer*, bool)'
  <SNIP>

After:

  Makefile.config:807: No suitable libLLVM found, disabling builtin clang and llvm support. Please install llvm-dev(el) (>= 3.9.0)

Updating the environment to a locally built LLVM 4.0 + clang 3.9 (forgot
to git pull, duh) combo, all works as expected, it is properly detected
and built into the resulting perf binary.

[ Change the warning message a bit (add 'suitable' and 'builtin'), clarifying it, see committer notes above ]
