tracing: Auto generate event name when creating a group of events

Currently when creating a specific group of trace events,
take kprobe event as example, the user must use the following format:
p:GRP/EVENT [MOD:]KSYM[+OFFS]|KADDR [FETCHARGS],
which means user must enter EVENT name, one example is:

  echo 'p:usb_gadget/config_usb_cfg_link config_usb_cfg_link $arg1' >> kprobe_events

It is not simple if there are too many entries because the event name is
the same as symbol name.

This change allows user to specify no EVENT name, format changed as:

   p:GRP/ [MOD:]KSYM[+OFFS]|KADDR [FETCHARGS]

It will generate event name automatically and one example is:

  echo 'p:usb_gadget/ config_usb_cfg_link $arg1' >> kprobe_events.
