Subject: [PATCH v2 12/24] dyndbg: refactor ddebug_read_flags out of ddebug_parse_flags

Currently, ddebug_parse_flags accepts [+-=][pflmt_]+ as flag-spec
strings.  If we allow [pflmt_]*[+-=][pflmt_]+ instead, the (new) 1st
flagset can be used as a filter to select callsites, before applying
changes in the 2nd flagset.  1st step is to split out the flags-reader
so we can use it again.

The point of this is to allow user to compose an arbitrary set of
changes, by marking callsites with [fmlt] flags, and then to
activate that composed set in a single query.

 #> echo '=_' > control			# clear all flags
 #> echo 'module usb* +fmlt' > control	# build the marked set, repeat
 #> echo 'fmlt+p' > control		# activate
