[PATCH v3 0/3] tools build: Fix arm64 unistd.h dependency

[Leo Yan <leo.yan@arm.com>]

The perf build includes arm64's unistd.h, but its dependent header
unistd_64.h is missing.

As suggested by Arnd in [1]:

  "I would suggest using the same method across all architectures:
   either we figure out how to use the generated headers on all of them
   (including x86, which uses yet another method), or we just stick with
   the old asm-generic/unistd.h copy and use that on arm64 as well."

A dynamic approach (e.g., make headers_install) may be explored later to
generate headers for tools, but that will need consensus from the tools
maintainers.  In the meantime, this series provides a quick fix by using
the asm-generic/unistd.h copy for arm64.

Changes in v3:
- Changed to include asm-generic/unistd.h copy (Arnd).
- Removed check due to divergence between the kernel and tools.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251210-perf_fix_syscall_header-v2-0-b18b6016e0ea@arm.com

Changes in v2:
