migration: Add tracepoints for downtime checkpoints

This patch is inspired by Joao Martin's patch here:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230926161841.98464-1-joao.m.martins@oracle.com

Add tracepoints for major downtime checkpoints on both src and dst.  They
share the same tracepoint with a string showing its stage.

Besides the checkpoints in the previous patch, this patch also added
destination checkpoints.

On src, we have these checkpoints added:

  - src-downtime-start: right before vm stops on src
  - src-vm-stopped: after vm is fully stopped
  - src-iterable-saved: after all iterables saved (END sections)
  - src-non-iterable-saved: after all non-iterable saved (FULL sections)
  - src-downtime-stop: migration fully completed

On dst, we have these checkpoints added:

  - dst-precopy-loadvm-completes: after loadvm all done for precopy
  - dst-precopy-bh-*: record BH steps to resume VM for precopy
  - dst-postcopy-bh-*: record BH steps to resume VM for postcopy

On dst side, we don't have a good way to trace total time consumed by
iterable or non-iterable for now.  We can mark it by 1st time receiving a
FULL / END section, but rather than that let's just rely on the other
tracepoints added for vmstates to back up the information.

With this patch, one can enable "vmstate_downtime*" tracepoints and it'll
enable all tracepoints for downtime measurements necessary.

Drop loadvm_postcopy_handle_run_bh() tracepoint alongside, because they
service the same purpose, which was only for postcopy.  We then have
unified prefix for all downtime relevant tracepoints.
