tools: Add guest trace agent as a user tool
This patch adds a user tool, "trace agent" for sending trace data of a guest to
a Host in low overhead. This agent has the following functions:
- splice a page of ring-buffer to read_pipe without memory copying
- splice the page from write_pipe to virtio-console without memory copying
- write trace data to stdout by using -o option
- controlled by start/stop orders from a Host
Changes in v2:
- Cleanup (change fprintf() to pr_err() and an include guard)
