Subject: [PATCH] perf build: Fix unescaped # in perf build-test

With the following bash and make versions:

  $ make --version
  GNU Make 4.2.1
  Built for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu

  $ bash --version
  GNU bash, version 5.0.17(1)-release (aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu)

This error is encountered when running the build-test target:

  $ make -C tools/perf build-test
  tests/make:181: *** unterminated call to function 'shell': missing ')'.  Stop.
  make: *** [Makefile:103: build-test] Error 2

Fix it by escaping the # which was causing make to interpret the rest of
the line as a comment leaving the unclosed opening bracket.

Fixes: 56d5229471ee ("tools build: Pass libbpf feature only if libbpf 1.0+")
