[v4,08/11] trace: remove limitation on trace point name

  The name of a trace point is provided as a constant string via the
RTE_TRACE_POINT_REGISTER macro.
We can rely on an explicit constant string in the binary and simply point
at it.
There is then no need for a (fixed size) copy.

Changes since v2:
- stored trace point name in a static variable to make sure the string
  is put in .data,
