trace: Support for dynamically enabling/disabling trace events
This patch adds support for dynamically enabling/disabling of trace events.
This is done by internally maintaining each trace event's state, and
permitting logging of data from a trace event only if it is in an
'active' state.
Monitor commands added :
1) info trace-events : to view all available trace events and
their state.
2) trace-event NAME on|off : to enable/disable data logging from a
given trace event.
Eg, trace-event paio_submit off
disables logging of data when
paio_submit is hit.
By default, all trace-events are disabled. One can enable desired trace-events
via the monitor.

trace: Remove monitor.h dependency from simpletrace
User-mode targets don't have a monitor so the simple trace backend
currently does not build on those targets. This patch abstracts the
monitor printing interface so there is no direct coupling between
simpletrace and the monitor.
