[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] intel: tools: fix build on old systems

Older system might not have support for memfd_create at the kernel
level. There we won't be able to use aubinator.

We also initially tried to workaround some libc having the
memfd_create syscall number defined, but not the memfd_create()
function.

This change fixes the broken build on the travis CI by only compiling
aubinator if memfd_create() is available as part of the libc.
Annoyingly the man page says which should include <sys/memfd.h> but
that header doesn't exist on my system and memfd_create() is instead
defined in bits/mman-shared.h. Hence the new checks...
