Subject: [PATCH] perf: move two mandatory variables out of perf.c

use_browser and perf_version_string are both declared in perf.c
but they are also referenced by other functions of libperf.a.

Therefore a user linking an own main() with libperf.a must
declare those two variables in their files even if the files
never use the browser or the version information.

This patch fixes this issue by moving use_browser and
perf_version_string out of perf.c to some other files.
