perf: fix build on kernels which don't have ${S}/tools/include/linux/bits.h

* tools/include/linux/bits.h was added in v4.20-rc1 with this commit:
  commit ba4aa02b417f08a0bee5e7b8ed70cac788a7c854
  Author: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
  Date:   Tue Sep 25 10:55:59 2018 -0300

    tools include: Adopt linux/bits.h

* also if you're building for such older kernel you will probably see
  do_compile failing with:
  | config/Makefile:448: Missing perl devel files. Disabling perl scripting support, please install perl-ExtUtils-Embed/libperl-dev
  | config/Makefile:495: Python 3 is not yet supported; please set
  | config/Makefile:496: PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.

  easiest work around is to disable scripting PACKAGECONFIG, because
  since oe-core commit:

    perf: change dependencies on python to python3

    The upstream kernel can now handle python3 for the perf scripts, coupled
    with the impending EOL of python2, we switch the dependencies in perf
    (scripting) to python3.

  it now uses python3, but the support for that was added in kernel
  v4.17-rc1 with:

  commit 66dfdff03d196e51322c6a85c0d8db8bb2bdd655

    perf tools: Add Python 3 support

    Added Python 3 support while keeping Python 2.7 compatibility.

  if you really need scripting support than either backport the kernel
  patch to your kernel or undo the perf recipe changes.
