perf python: Ignore unused command line arguments when building with clang

Noticed after switching to python3 by default on some older fedora
releases:

35 38.20 fedora:27 : FAIL clang version 5.0.2 (tags/RELEASE_502/final)
clang-5.0: error: argument unused during compilation: '-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]
clang-5.0: error: argument unused during compilation: '-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]

perf scripting perl: Ignore some warnings to keep building with perl headers

On gcc 12 we started seeing this:

In file included from /usr/lib/perl5/5.36.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/CORE/perl.h:2999,

So disable those warnings to keep building with perl devel headers.

Noticed, among other distros, on opensuse tumbleweed:

perf tools: Rename build libperf to perf

Rename build libperf to perf, because it's used to build perf.

The libperf build object name will be used for libperf library.

perf tools: Fix build failure on perl script context

On my Archlinux machine, perf faild to build like below:

CC scripts/perl/Perf-Trace-Util/Context.o
In file included from /usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/perl.h:3905:0,
from Context.xs:23:
/usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/inline.h: In function :
/usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/cop.h:612:13: warning: declaration of 'av'
shadows a previous local [-Werror-shadow]
AV *av =3D GvAV(PL_defgv);
^
/usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/inline.h:526:5: note: in expansion of
macro 'CX_POP_SAVEARRAY'
CX_POP_SAVEARRAY(cx);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from /usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/perl.h:5853:0,
from Context.xs:23:
/usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/inline.h:518:9: note:
shadowed declaration is here
AV *av;
^~

What I did to fix is adding '-Wno-shadow' as the error message said it's
the cause of the failure. Since it's from the perl (not perf) code
base, we don't have the control so I just wanted to ignore the warning
when compiling perl scripting code.

Committer note:

This also fixes the build on Fedora Rawhide.
