tracing: Add 'onmax' hist trigger action support

Add an 'onmax(var).save(field,...)' hist trigger action which is
invoked whenever an event exceeds the current maximum.

The end result is that the trace event fields or variables specified
as the onmax.save() params will be saved if 'var' exceeds the current
maximum for that hist trigger entry.  This allows context from the
event that exhibited the new maximum to be saved for later reference.
When the histogram is displayed, additional fields displaying the
saved values will be printed.

As an example the below defines a couple of hist triggers, one for
sched_wakeup and another for sched_switch, keyed on pid.  Whenever a
sched_wakeup occurs, the timestamp is saved in the entry corresponding
to the current pid, and when the scheduler switches back to that pid,
the timestamp difference is calculated.  If the resulting latency
exceeds the current maximum latency, the specified save() values are
saved:

    # echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs \
        if comm=="cyclictest"' >> \
      /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger

    # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:\
      wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:\
      onmax($wakeup_lat).save(next_comm,prev_pid,prev_prio,prev_comm) \
        if next_comm=="cyclictest"' >> \
      /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

When the histogram is displayed, the max value and the saved values
corresponding to the max are displayed following the rest of the
fields:

    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/hist

      { next_pid:       3728 } hitcount:        199 \
        max:        123  next_comm: cyclictest  prev_pid:          0 \
	prev_prio:        120  prev_comm: swapper/3
      { next_pid:       3730 } hitcount:       1321 \
        max:         15  next_comm: cyclictest  prev_pid:          0 \
	prev_prio:        120  prev_comm: swapper/1
      { next_pid:       3729 } hitcount:       1973\
        max:         25  next_comm: cyclictest  prev_pid:          0  \
	prev_prio:        120  prev_comm: swapper/0
