ftrace: Add task_comm support for trace_event

If we enable a trace event alone without any tracer running (such as
function tracer, sched switch tracer, etc...) it can't output enough
task command information.

We need to use the tracing_{start/stop}_cmdline_record() helpers
which are designed to keep track of cmdlines for any tasks that
were scheduled during the tracing.

Before this patch:
# echo 1 > debugfs/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/enable
# cat debugfs/tracing/trace
# tracer: nop
#
# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | | |
<...>-2289 [000] 526276.724790: sched_switch: task bash:2289 [120] ==> sshd:2287 [120]

<...>-2289 [000] 526276.725452: sched_switch: task bash:2289 [120] ==> sshd:2287 [120]
<...>-2287 [000] 526276.727181: sched_switch: task sshd:2287 [120] ==> swapper:0 [140]
<idle>-0 [000] 526277.032734: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] ==> events/0:5 [115]
<...>-5 [000] 526277.032782: sched_switch: task events/0:5 [115] ==> swapper:0 [140]
...

After this patch:
# tracer: nop
#
# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | | |
bash-2269 [000] 527347.989229: sched_switch: task bash:2269 [120] ==> sshd:2267 [120]

sshd-2267 [000] 527347.992959: sched_switch: task sshd:2267 [120] ==> swapper:0 [140]
<idle>-0 [000] 527348.531989: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] ==> events/0:5 [115]
events/0-5 [000] 527348.532115: sched_switch: task events/0:5 [115] ==> swapper:0 [140]
...

Changelog:
v1->v2: Update Kconfig to select CONTEXT_SWITCH_TRACER in
ENABLE_EVENT_TRACING
v2->v3: v2 can solve problem that was caused by config EVENT_TRACING
alone, but when CONFIG_FTRACE is off and CONFIG_TRACING is
selected by other config, compile fail happened again.
This version solves it.

[ Impact: fix incomplete output of event tracing ]
