Subject: [PATCH] perf: Skip running the feature tests for 'make install-doc'

It is a requirement from the perf todo list:
The feature tests should be performed only when a file that needs those tests,
or at least only when some .c or .h file will be rebuilt
    An initial step would be for 'make install-doc' not to run the feature tests,
    there it is not needed at all.

By adding 'install-doc' to the NON_CONFIG_TARGETS, it will skip running the
feature tests for such target. The Auto-detecting system features list will
not be displayed:

$ make install-doc
  BUILD:   Doing 'make -j2' parallel build
  SUBDIR   Documentation
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'install'.
