trace: introduce a formal group name for trace events

The declarations in the generated-tracers.h file are
assuming there's only ever going to be one instance
of this header, as they are not namespaced. When we
have one header per event group, if a single source
file needs to include multiple sets of trace events,
the symbols will all clash.

This change thus introduces a '--group NAME' arg to the
'tracetool' program. This will cause all the symbols in
the generated header files to be given a unique namespace.

If no group is given, the group name 'common' is used,
which is suitable for the current usage where there is
only one global trace-events file used for code generation.
