x86, bts, hw-branch-tracer: add _noirq variants to the debug store interface

The hw-branch-tracer uses debug store functions from an on_each_cpu()
context, which is simply wrong since the functions may sleep.

Add _noirq variants for most functions, which  may be called with
interrupts disabled.

Separate per-cpu and per-task tracing and allow per-cpu tracing to be
controlled from any cpu.

Make the hw-branch-tracer use the new debug store interface, synchronize
with hotplug cpu event using get/put_online_cpus(), and remove the
unnecessary spinlock.

Make the ptrace bts and the ds selftest code use the new interface.

Defer the ds selftest.
