tracing/string: Create and use __free(argv_free) in trace_dynevent.c
The function dyn_event_release() uses argv_split() which must be freed via argv_free(). It contains several error paths that do a goto out to call argv_free() for cleanup. This makes the code complex and error prone. Create a new __free() directive __free(argv_free) that will call argv_free() for data allocated with argv_split(), and use it in the dyn_event_release() function.
