x86/tracing: Introduce a static key for exception tracing
Switching the IDT just for avoiding tracepoints creates a completely impenetrable macro/inline/ifdef mess. There is no point in avoiding tracepoints for most of the traps/exceptions. For the more expensive tracepoints, like pagefaults, this can be handled with an explicit static key. Preparatory patch to remove the tracing IDT.
