tracing: Add synth_event_trace() and related functions

Add an exported function named synth_event_trace(), allowing modules or other kernel code to trace synthetic events. Also added are several functions that allow the same functionality to be broken out in a piecewise fashion, which are useful in situations where tracing an event from a full array of values would be cumbersome. Those functions are synth_event_trace_start/end() and synth_event_add_(next)_val().
