Sudip Mukherjee c09982f8e2 libtraceevent: Allow custom libdir path
When I use prefix=/usr and try to install libtraceevent in my laptop it
tries to install in /usr/lib64. I am not having any folder as /usr/lib64
and also the debian policy doesnot allow installing in /usr/lib64. It
should be in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/.

Quote: No package for a 64 bit architecture may install files in
	/usr/lib64/ or in a subdirectory of it.

ref: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html

Make it more flexible by allowing to mention libdir_relative while
installing so that distros can mention the path according to their
policy or use the default one.

Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) 077faf3dc7 libtraceevent: Move traceevent plugins in its own subdirectory
All traceevent plugins code is moved to tools/lib/traceevent/plugins
subdirectory. It makes traceevent implementation in trace-cmd and in
kernel tree consistent. There is no changes in the way libtraceevent and
plugins are compiled and installed.

Committer notes:

Applied fixup provided by Steven, fixing the tools/perf/Makefile.perf
target for the plugin dynamic list file. Problem noticed when cross
building to aarch64 from a Ubuntu 19.04 container.
