tracing/filters: fix bug in copy_pred()
Impact: fix potential crash on subsystem filter expression freeing
When making a copy of the predicate, pred->field_name needs to be
duplicated in the copy as well, otherwise bad things can happen due to
later multiple frees of the same string.
This affects only per-subsystem event filtering.
