perf_counter tools: Fix link errors with older toolchains

On older distros (F8 for example) the perf build could fail
with such missing symbols:

LINK perf
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.3.2/../../../../lib64/libbfd.a(bfd.o): In function `bfd_demangle':
(.text+0x2b3): undefined reference to `cplus_demangle'
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.3.2/../../../../lib64/libbfd.a(bfd.o): In function `bfd_demangle':

Link in -liberty too.
