Subject: [PATCH] perf build: Fix broken feature check for llvm due to C++ standard

Perf build auto-detects features and packages already installed
for its build. This is done in directory tools/build/feature. This
directory contains small sample programs. When they successfully
compile the necessary prereqs in form of libraries and header
files are present.

Such a check is also done for llvm. And this check fails.
Fix this and update to the latest C++ standard.

Output before:
 # rm -f ./test-llvm.bin; make test-llvm.bin; ./test-llvm.bin
 g++  -MD -Wall -Werror -o test-llvm.bin test-llvm.cpp \
	 	> test-llvm.make.output 2>&1 -std=gnu++14 \
	-I/usr/include 		\
	-L/usr/lib64		\
	-lLLVM-16		\
			\
	> test-llvm.make.output 2>&1

 make: *** [Makefile:343: test-llvm.bin] Error 1
 -bash: ./test-llvm.bin: No such file or directory
 #

Output after:
 # rm -f ./test-llvm.bin; make test-llvm.bin; ./test-llvm.bin
 g++  -MD -Wall -Werror -o test-llvm.bin test-llvm.cpp \
	 	> test-llvm.make.output 2>&1 -std=gnu++17 \
	-I/usr/include 		\
	-L/usr/lib64		\
	-lLLVM-16		\
			\
	> test-llvm.make.output 2>&1
 Hello World!
