sched/tracing: Append prev_state to tp args instead

Commit fa2c3254d7cf (sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting
sched_switch event, 2022-01-20) added a new prev_state argument to the
sched_switch tracepoint, before the prev task_struct pointer.

This reordering of arguments broke BPF programs that use the raw
tracepoint (e.g. tp_btf programs). The type of the second argument has
changed and existing programs that assume a task_struct* argument
(e.g. for bpf_task_storage access) will now fail to verify.

If we instead append the new argument to the end, all existing programs
would continue to work and can conditionally extract the prev_state
argument on supported kernel versions.

tracing: Add TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro

To make it really easy to add custom events from modules, add a
TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro that acts just like the TRACE_EVENT() macro,
but creates a custom event to an already existing tracepoint.

The trace_custom_sched.[ch] has been updated to use this new macro to show
how simple it is.
