If we enable a trace event alone without any tracer running (such as
function tracer, sched switch tracer, etc...) it can't output enough
task command information.

We need to use the tracing_{start/stop}_cmdline_record() helpers
which are designed to keep track of cmdlines for any tasks that
were scheduled during the tracing.

Before this patch:

Changelog:
v1->v2: Update Kconfig to select CONTEXT_SWITCH_TRACER in
        ENABLE_EVENT_TRACING
v2->v3: v2 can solve problem that was caused by config EVENT_TRACING
        alone, but when CONFIG_FTRACE is off and CONFIG_TRACING is
        selected by other config, compile fail happened again.
        This version solves it.

[ Impact: fix incomplete output of event tracing ]
