tracing: Add usecs modifier for hist trigger timestamps

Browse Source 
Appending .usecs onto a common_timestamp field will cause the
timestamp value to be in microseconds instead of the default
nanoseconds.  A typical latency histogram using usecs would look like
this:

   # echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs ...
   # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0 ...

This also adds an external trace_clock_in_ns() to trace.c for the
timestamp conversion.
