Jiri Olsa 9bce13ea88 perf record: Disable debuginfod by default
Fedora 35 sets DEBUGINFOD_URLS by default, which might lead to
unexpected stalls in perf record exit path, when we try to cache
profiled binaries.

  # DEBUGINFOD_PROGRESS=1 ./perf record -a
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  Downloading from https://debuginfod.fedoraproject.org/ 447069

  Downloading \^Z

Disabling DEBUGINFOD_URLS by default in perf record and adding
debuginfod option and .perfconfig variable support to enable id.

  Default without debuginfo processing:
  # perf record -a

  Using system debuginfod setup:
  # perf record -a --debuginfod

  Using custom debuginfd url:
  # perf record -a --debuginfod='https://evenbetterdebuginfodserver.krava'

Adding single perf_debuginfod_setup function and using
it also in perf buildid-cache command.
