tracing/probe: Add ustring type for user-space string
Add "ustring" type for fetching user-space string from kprobe event. User can specify ustring type at uprobe event, and it is same as "string" for uprobe. Note that probe-event provides this option but it doesn't choose the correct type automatically since we have not way to decide the address is in user-space or not on some arch (and on some other arch, you can fetch the string by "string" type). So user must carefully check the target code (e.g. if you see __user on the target variable) and use this new type.
