perf llvm: Allow dump llvm output object file using llvm.dump-obj
Add a 'llvm.dump-obj' config option to enable perf dump BPF object files compiled by LLVM. This option is useful when using BPF objects in embedded platforms. LLVM compiler won't be deployed in these platforms, and currently we don't support dynamic compiling library. Before this patch users have to explicitly issue llvm commands to compile BPF scripts, and can't use helpers (like include path detection and default macros) in perf. With this option, user is allowed to use perf to compile their BPF objects then copy them into their embedded platforms.
