perf tools: Add 'perf -vv' as an alias to 'perf version --build-options' 

We keep having bug reports that when users build perf on their own, but
they don't install some needed libraries such as libelf,
libbfd/libibery.

The perf can build, but it is missing important functionality.

This patch provides a new option '-vv' for perf which will print the
compiled-in status of libraries.

The 'perf -vv' is mapped to 'perf version --build-options'.

For example:

$ ./perf -vv

perf version 4.13.rc5.g6727c5

                   bpf: [ on  ]  # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT

v3:

One bug is found in v2. It didn't process the option like '-vabc'
correctly. Fix this bug.

v2:

Use a global variable version_verbose to record the number of 'v'.
