perf test: Skip sigtrap test on old kernels

If it runs on an old kernel, perf_event_open would fail because of the
new fields sigtrap and sig_data.  Just skipping the test could miss an
actual bug in the kernel.

Let's check BTF (when we have libbpf) if it has the sigtrap field in the
perf_event_attr.  Otherwise, we can check it with a minimal event config.
