    tracing: Add trace_event helper macros __string_len() and __assign_str_len()
    
    There's a few cases that a string that is to be recorded in a trace event,
    does not have a terminating 'nul' character, and instead, the tracepoint
    passes in the length of the string to record.
    
    Add two helper macros to the trace event code that lets this work easier,
    than tricks with "%.*s" logic.
    
      __string_len() which is similar to __string() for declaration, but takes a
                     length argument.
    
      __assign_str_len() which is similar to __assign_str() for assiging the
                     string, but it too takes a length argument.
    
    This string can still use __get_str() just like strings created with
    __string() can use to retrieve the string.
