tracing: Allow BPF programs to call bpf_trace_printk()
Debugging of BPF programs needs some form of printk from the
program, so let programs call limited trace_printk() with %d %u
%x %p modifiers only.
Similar to kernel modules, during program load verifier checks
whether program is calling bpf_trace_printk() and if so, kernel
allocates trace_printk buffers and emits big 'this is debug
only' banner.
