[PATCH v3 1/6] tracing/user_events: Store register flags on events

[Beau Belgrave]

Currently we don't have any available flags for user processes to use to
indicate options for user_events. We will soon have a flag to indicate
the event should or should not auto-delete once it's not being used by
anyone.

Add a reg_flags field to user_events and parameters to existing
functions to allow for this in future patches.
