tracing: Allow creating instances with specified system events
A trace instance may only need to enable specific events. As the eventfs directory of an instance currently creates all events which adds overhead, allow internal instances to be created with just the events in systems that they care about. This currently only deals with systems and not individual events, but this should bring down the overhead of creating instances for specific use cases quite bit. The trace_array_get_by_name() now has another parameter "systems". This parameter is a const string pointer of a comma/space separated list of event systems that should be created by the trace_array. (Note if the trace_array already exists, this parameter is ignored). The list of systems is saved and if a module is loaded, its events will not be added unless the system for those events also match the systems string.
