tracing: Rename stacktrace field to common_stacktrace

The histogram and synthetic events can use a pseudo event called
"stacktrace" that will create a stacktrace at the time of the event and
use it just like it was a normal field. We have other pseudo events such
as "common_cpu" and "common_timestamp". To stay consistent with that,
convert "stacktrace" to "common_stacktrace". As this was used in older
kernels, to keep backward compatibility, this will act just like
"common_cpu" did with "cpu". That is, "cpu" will be the same as
"common_cpu" unless the event has a "cpu" field. In which case, the
event's field is used. The same is true with "stacktrace".

Also update the documentation to reflect this change.
