perf build: Add ability to build with a generated vmlinux.h

Commit a887466562 ("perf bpf skels: Stop using vmlinux.h generated
from BTF, use subset of used structs + CO-RE") made it so that
vmlinux.h was uncondtionally included from
tools/perf/util/vmlinux.h. This change reverts part of that change (so
that vmlinux.h is once again generated) and makes it so that the
vmlinux.h used at build time is selected from the VMLINUX_H
variable. By default the VMLINUX_H variable is set to the vmlinux.h
added in change a887466562, but if GEN_VMLINUX_H=1 is passed on the
build command line then the previous generation behavior kicks in.

The build with GEN_VMLINUX_H=1 currently fails with:

    util/bpf_skel/lock_contention.bpf.c:419:8: error: redefinition of 'rq'
    struct rq {};
           ^
    /tmp/perf/util/bpf_skel/.tmp/../vmlinux.h:45630:8: note: previous definition is here
    struct rq {
           ^
    1 error generated.
