tools include: Do not use poison with C++

LIST_POISON[12] are used to initialize list_head and hlist_node
pointers, and do void pointer arithmetic, which C++ doesn't like, so, to
avoid drifting from the kernel by introducing some HLIST_POISON to do
away with void pointer math, just make those poisoned pointers be NULL
when building it with a C++ compiler.

Noticed with:

  $ make LLVM_CONFIG=/usr/bin/llvm-config-3.9 LIBCLANGLLVM=1
