ath5k: use tracing for packet tx/rx dump
This adds a few tracepoints to ath5k driver transmit and receive callbacks in order to record packet traffic. We record the entire packet in the trace buffer so that the data can be extracted with trace-cmd and external plugins. Compared to the previous debugging calls, this approach removes an out-of-line function call from the tx and rx paths in the compiled-in-but-disabled case, while improving the ability to process the logged data. A new option, CONFIG_ATH5K_TRACER, is added so that one may disable the tracepoints completely.
