hw_breakpoints: Migrate breakpoint
The hardware breakpoint config is only made of an ability. An
arch that support this feature selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT. If so,
the feature is definetly built-in, the user can't decide to turn
it off. As hw_breakpoints depend on perf, it also makes perf
a mandatory feature. The whole is quite a
The breakpoint support ability in an arch is not related
to the fact perf events is built or not. HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT
only shows an ability so this dependency makes no sense
anymore. Archs that select HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT already

Remove that dependency.

Previously, arch were forced to always build perf events if they
supported hw_breakpoints.
Now that the user can choose not to build hw_breakpoints, let
