tracing: Use TRACE_FLAGS macro to keep enums and strings matched
Use a cute little macro trick to keep the names of the trace flags file
guaranteed to match the corresponding masks.
The macro TRACE_FLAGS is defined as a serious of enum names followed by
the string name of the file that matches it. For example:
 #define TRACE_FLAGS						\
		C(PRINT_PARENT,		"print-parent"),	\
		C(SYM_OFFSET,		"sym-offset"),		\
		C(SYM_ADDR,		"sym-addr"),		\
		C(VERBOSE,		"verbose"),
Now we can define the following:
 #undef C
 #define C(a, b) TRACE_ITER_##a##_BIT
 enum trace_iterator_bits { TRACE_FLAGS };
The above creates:
 enum trace_iterator_bits {
	TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT_BIT,
	TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET_BIT,
	TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT,
	TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE_BIT,
 };
Then we can redefine C as:
 #undef C
 #define C(a, b) TRACE_ITER_##a = (1 << TRACE_ITER_##a##_BIT)
 enum trace_iterator_flags { TRACE_FLAGS };
Which creates:
 enum trace_iterator_flags {
	TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT	= (1 << TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT_BIT),
	TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET	= (1 << TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET_BIT),
	TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR	= (1 << TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT),
	TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE	= (1 << TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE_BIT),
 };
Then finally we can create the list of file names:
 #undef C
 #define C(a, b) b
 static const char *trace_options[] = {
	TRACE_FLAGS
	NULL
 };
Which creates:
 static const char *trace_options[] = {
	"print-parent",
	"sym-offset",
	"sym-addr",
	"verbose",
	NULL
 };
The importance of this is that the strings match the bit index.
	trace_options[TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT] == "sym-addr"
