revive probe mode container case

DR has long had hotpatching support that operates both with and without the
code cache. Turning that into a nice API for users to write probes was
never completed, however.

Xref https://code.google.com/p/drmemory/wiki/Projects#Probe_mode We made a new interface dr_register_probes() that supports raw addresses,
library offsets, or exported functions, but it is not completely finished.

For example, currently you can only call dr_register_probes() once, during
DR init. We'd like to support it being called at any time. The code
implies that we need to use an internal nudge if it's called later, though
we should revisit that.

Some issues mentioned in the code:
