trace: let boot trace be chosen by command line

Now that we have a working ftrace=<tracer> function, make the boot
tracer get activated by it. This way we can turn it on or off without
recompiling the kernel, as well as keeping the selftests on. The
selftests are disabled whenever a default tracer starts running.

( Note that tracing self tests can't be enabled if this tracer is
selected, because the self-tests are an initcall as well and that
would invalidate the boot trace. )
You must pass in ftrace=initcall to the kernel command line
to enable this on bootup.
