tracing: Add enabling of events to boot instances
Add the format of:
trace_instance=foo,sched:sched_switch,irq_handler_entry,initcall
That will create the "foo" instance and enable the sched_switch event
(here were the "sched" system is explicitly specified), the
irq_handler_entry event, and all events under the system initcall.
