Subject: [PATCH V9 1/6] tracing: add a possibility of exporting function trace to other places instead of ring buffer only

Currently Function traces can be only exported to ring buffer, this
patch added trace_export concept which can process traces and export
them to a registered destination as an addition to the current only
one output of Ftrace - i.e. ring buffer.

In this way, if we want Function traces to be sent to other destination
rather than ring buffer only, we just need to register a new trace_export
and implement its own .write() function for writing traces to storage.

With this patch, only Function trace (trace type is TRACE_FN)
is supported.
