btrace: support Intel(R) Processor Trace
Adds a new command "record btrace pt" to configure the kernel to use
Intel(R) Processor Trace instead of Branch Trace Strore.

The "record btrace" command chooses the tracing format automatically.

Intel(R) Processor Trace support requires Linux 4.1 and libipt.
