Subject: [PATCH] perf data: don't mention --to-ctf if it's not supported

From: Mahmoud Mandour <ma.mandourr@...il.com>

The option `--to-ctf` is only available when perf has libbabeltrace
support. Hence, on error, we shouldn't state that user must include
`--to-ctf` unless it's supported.

The only user-visible change for this commit is that when `perf` is not
configured to support libbabeltrace, the user is only prompted to
provide the `--to-json` option instead of bothe `--to-json` and
`--to-ctf`.
