xen: make tracebuffer configurable

Xen internal running status(trace event at pre-defined trace point)
will be saved to trace memory when enabled.
Trace event data and config params can be read/changed
by system control hypercall at run time.

Can be disabled for smaller code footprint.

+         Enable tracing infrastructure and pre-defined tracepoints within Xen.
+         This will allow live information about Xen\92s execution and performance
+         to be collected at run time for debugging or performance analysis.
+         Memory and execution overhead when not active is minimal.
