Subject: [PATCH 5.15 259/277] tools build: Use $(shell ) instead of `` to get embedded libperls ccopts

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@...hat.com>

commit 541f695cbcb6932c22638b06e0cbe1d56177e2e9 upstream.

Just like its done for ldopts and for both in tools/perf/Makefile.config.

Using `` to initialize PERL_EMBED_CCOPTS somehow precludes using:

  $(filter-out SOMETHING_TO_FILTER,$(PERL_EMBED_CCOPTS))

And we need to do it to allow for building with versions of clang where
some gcc options selected by distros are not available.
