perf tools: Fix empty version number when building outside of a git repo

When perf is built in a full source tree that is not a git repository,
e.g. from a kernel source tarball, `perf version` will print empty tag
and commit strings:

  $ perf version
  perf version

Currently the tag version is only generated from the root Makefile when
building in a git repository. If PERF-VERSION-FILE has not been
generated and the source tree is not in a git repository, then
PERF-VERSION-GEN will return an empty version.

The problem can be reproduced with the following steps:

  $ wget https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/t/linux-6.0-rc7.tar.gz
  $ tar -xf linux-6.0-rc7.tar.gz && cd linux-6.0-rc7
  $ make -C tools/perf
  $ tools/perf/perf -v
  perf version

Builds from tarballs generated with `make perf-tar-src-pkg` are not
impacted by this issue as PERF-VERSION-FILE is included in the archive.

The perf RPM provided by Fedora for 5.18+ is experiencing this problem.
Package build logs[0] show that the build is attempting to fall back on
PERF-VERSION-FILE, but it is not present.

To resolve this, revert back to the previous logic of using the kernel
Makefile version if not in a git repository and PERF-VERSION-FILE does
not exist.
