perf tests: Skip pipe test if noploop symbol is missing

perf pipe recording and injection test depends on finding symbol noploop in
perf, and fails if perf has been stripped and no debug object is available.
In that case, skip the test instead.

Example:

Before:

$ strip tools/perf/perf
$ tools/perf/perf buildid-cache -p `realpath tools/perf/perf`
$ tools/perf/perf test -v pipe
86: perf pipe recording and injection test :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 47734
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
47741 47741 -1 |perf
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
cannot find noploop function in pipe #1
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
perf pipe recording and injection test: FAILED!

After:

$ tools/perf/perf test -v pipe
86: perf pipe recording and injection test :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 48996
perf does not have symbol 'noploop'
perf is missing symbols - skipping test
test child finished with -2
---- end ----
perf pipe recording and injection test: Skip

perf test: Replace pipe test workload with noploop

So that it can get rid of requirement of a compiler.
Also define and use more local symbols to ease future changes.

$ sudo ./perf test -v pipe

perf tools: Add pipe_test.sh to verify pipe operations

It builds a test program and use it to verify pipe behavior with perf
record, inject and report.

$ perf test pipe -v
