Add read path and control path to use trace-agent of virtio-trace.
When we use trace-agent, trace-cmd will be used as follows:
# AGENT_READ_DIR=/tmp/virtio-trace/tracing \
AGENT_CTL=/tmp/virtio-trace/agent-ctl-path.in \
TRACING_DIR=/tmp/virtio-trace/debugfs/tracing \\

Ha! You used "TRACING_DIR" but patch one introduces TRACE_DIR. Lets
change this to DEBUG_TRACING_DIR instead anyway.

Oh, sorry for the confusion.

Also, I don't like the generic environment variables. Perhaps
VIRTIO_TRACE_DIR, or AGENT_TRACE_DIR and AGENT_TRACE_CTL. Lets try to
keep the environment namespace sparse.

OK, I'll change these name of environment variables as follows:
AGENT_READ_DIR
AGENT_TRACE_CTL
GUEST_TRACING_DIR

trace-cmd record -e "sched:*"
Here, AGENT_READ_DIR is the path for a reading directory of virtio-trace,
AGENT_CTL is a control path of trace-agent, and TRACING_DIR is a debugfs path
of a guest.

Thanks for the reminder. I need to convert a lot to use 'bool' instead.

I'll change 'int' just for flag to use 'bool' as much as possible
after finishing this patch set.

OK, I'll correct this.
