[PATCH v4 02/10] btrace: Enable auxiliary instructions in record instruction-history.

Print the auxiliary data when a btrace_insn of type BTRACE_INSN_AUX
is encountered in the instruction-history. Printing is active by default,
it can be silenced with the /a modifier.
This patch is in preparation for the new ptwrite feature, which is based on
auxiliary instructions.
