perf: Auto-detect libbfd

Since the C++ demangling isn't needed for everybody and
bfd/iberty aren't widely/easily available on all machines, make
it optional.

It also allows you to forcefully disable demangling by using
NO_DEMANGLE=1 and otherwise tries to detect libbfd/libiberty
combinations that result in a compiling demangler.
