tracing: Support string type key properly
The string in a trace event is usually recorded as dynamic array which
is variable length. But current hist code only support fixed length
array so it cannot support most strings.
This patch fixes it by checking filter_type of the field and get
proper pointer with it. With this, it can get a histogram of exec()
based on filenames like below:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec
# cat 'hist:key=filename' > trigger
# ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
1 ? 00:00:00 init
29 ? 00:00:00 sh
38 ? 00:00:00 ps
# ls
enable filter format hist id trigger
# cat hist
# trigger info: hist:keys=filename:vals=hitcount:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active]
{ filename: /usr/bin/ps } hitcount: 1
