perf build: Make binutil libraries opt in

binutils is GPLv3 so distributions cannot ship perf linked against
libbfd and libiberty as the licenses are incompatible. Rather than
defaulting the build to opting in to libbfd and libiberty support and
opting out via NO_LIBBFD=1 and NO_DEMANGLE=1, make building against
the libraries optional and enabled with BUILD_NONDISTRO=1.
