[PATCH] For 'simple' trace backend, allow bulk enabling/disabling of trace
 events at compile time.
 Trace events that are preceded by 'disable' keyword are compiled in, but 
 turned off by default. These can individually be turned on using the monitor.
 All other trace events are enabled by default.

TODO :
This could be enhanced when the trace-event namespace is partitioned into a
group and an ID within that group. In such a case, marking a group as enabled 
would automatically enable all trace-events listed under it.
