Disabling libbabeltrace check by default and replacing the
NO_LIBBABELTRACE make variable with LIBBABELTRACE.

Users wanting the libbabeltrace feature need to build via:
  $ make LIBBABELTRACE=1

The reason for this is that the libababeltrace interface
we use (version 1.3) hasn't been packaged/released yet,
thus the failing feature check only slows down build and
confuses other (non CTF) developers.
