Subject: [PATCH] perf build: Fix broken feature check for clang due to C++ standard and changed library packaging

Perf build auto-detects features and packages already installed
for its build. This is done in directory tools/build/feature. This
directory contains small sample programs. When they successfully
compile the necessary prereqs in form of libraries and header
files are present.

Such a check is also done for clang. And this check fails.

Fix this and update to the latest C++ standard and use the
new library provided by clang (which contains new packaging)
see this link for reference:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Stop-Shipping-Individual-Component-Libraries-In-clang-lib-Package

Output before:
