tracing: Add alloc_snapshot kernel command line parameter
If debugging the kernel, and the developer wants to use tracing_snapshot() in places where tracing_snapshot_alloc() may be difficult (or more likely, the developer is lazy and doesn't want to bother with tracing_snapshot_alloc() at all), then adding alloc_snapshot to the kernel command line parameter will tell ftrace to allocate the snapshot buffer (if configured) when it allocates the main tracing buffer. I also noticed that ring_buffer_expanded and tracing_selftest_disabled had inconsistent use of boolean "true" and "false" with "0" and "1". I cleaned that up too.
