Subject: [PATCH 5.15 257/277] perf python: Fix probing for some clang command line options

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

commit dd6e1fe91cdd52774ca642d1da75b58a86356b56 upstream.

The clang compiler complains about some options even without a source
file being available, while others require one, so use the simple
tools/build/feature/test-hello.c file.

Then check for the "is not supported" string in its output, in addition
to the "unknown argument" already being looked for.

This was noticed when building with clang-13 where -ffat-lto-objects
isn't supported and since we were looking just for "unknown argument"
and not providing a source code to clang, was mistakenly assumed as
being available and not being filtered to set of command line options
provided to clang, leading to a build failure.
