[PATCH v2 4/7] tracing/user_events: Ensure user provided strings are safely formatted

[Beau Belgrave]

User processes can provide bad strings that may cause issues or leak
kernel details back out. Don't trust the content of these strings
when formatting strings for matching.

This also moves to a consistent dynamic length string creation model.
