Some applications want to omit the trace feature.
Either to reduce the memory footprint, to reduce the exposed attack
surface, or for other reasons.

This patch adds an option in rte_config.h to include or omit trace in the
build. Trace is included by default.

Omitting trace works by omitting all trace points.
For API and ABI compatibility, the trace feature itself remains.

v7:
  Updated version.map to not export __rte_trace_feature_is_enabled for
  Windows target.
v6:
  Removed test_trace_perf.c changes; they don't compile for Windows
  target, and are superfluous.
v5:
  Added public function rte_trace_feature_is_enabled(), to test if trace
  is build time enabled in both the DPDK and the application. Use in test
  application instead of private function. (Jerin Jacob)
v4:
* Added check for generic trace enabled when registering trace points, in
  RTE_INIT. (Jerin Jacob)
* Test application uses function instead of macro to check if generic
  trace is enabled. (Jerin Jacob)
* Performance test application uses function to check if generic trace is
  enabled.
v3:
* Simpler version with much fewer ifdefs. (Jerin Jacob)
v2:
* Added/modified macros required for building applications with trace
  omitted.

Forgot to carry over Stephen's Ack to v4, so here it comes for the benefit of Patchwork...
