tracing/user_events: Use print_format_fields() for trace output
Currently, user events are shown using the "hex" output for "safety" reasons as one cannot trust user events behaving nicely. But the hex output is not the only utility for safe outputting of trace events. The print_event_fields() is just as safe and gives user readable output.
