[PATCH v10 09/10] dyndbg: create DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_LOG|TRACE_GROUPS

With the recent addition of pr_debug to tracefs via +T flag, we now
want to add drm.trace; like its model: drm.debug, it maps bits to
pr_debug categories, but this one enables/disables writing to tracefs
(iff CONFIG_TRACING).

Do this by:

1. add flags to dyndbg_bitmap_param, holds "p" or "T" to work for either.

   add DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_BITGRPS_FLAGS to init .flags
   DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_BITGRPS gets "p" for compat.
   use it from...

2. DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_LOG_GROUPS as (1) with "p" flags - print to syslog
   DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_TRACE_GROUPS as (1) with "T" flags - trace to tracefs
   add kdoc to these

NOTES

The flags args (1) is a string, not just a 'p' or 'T'.  This allows
use of decorator flags ("mflt") too, in case the module author wants
to insure those decorations are in the trace & log.

The LOG|TRACE (2) macros don't use any decorator flags, (and therefore
don't toggle them), allowing users to control those themselves.

Decorator flags are shared for both LOG and TRACE consumers,
coordination between users is expected.  ATM, theres no declarative
way to preset decorator flags, but DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_BITGRPS_FLAGS
can be used to explicitly toggle them.
