Define the public API for trace support.
This patch also adds support for the build infrastructure and
update the MAINTAINERS file for the trace subsystem.
The 8 bytes tracepoint object is a global variable, and can be used in
fast path. Created a new __rte_trace_point section to store the
tracepoint objects as,
- It is a mostly read-only data and not to mix with other "write"
global variables.
- Chances that the same subsystem fast path variables come in the same
fast path cache line. i.e, it will enable a more predictable
performance number from build to build.
