tracing: Add unified dynamic event framework

Add unified dynamic event framework for ftrace kprobes, uprobes
and synthetic events. Those dynamic events can be co-exist on
same file because those syntax doesn't overlap.

This introduces a framework part which provides a unified tracefs
interface and operations.
