tracing/infrastructure: separate event tracer from event support

Add a new config option, CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING that gets selected
when CONFIG_TRACING is selected and adds everything needed by the stuff
in trace_export - basically all the event tracing support needed by e.g.
bprint, minus the actual events, which are only included if
CONFIG_EVENT_TRACER is selected.

So CONFIG_EVENT_TRACER can be used to turn on or off the generated events
(what I think of as the 'event tracer'), while CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING turns
on or off the base event tracing support used by both the event tracer and
the other things such as bprint that can't be configured out.
