[meta-rockchip][PATCH v3] kernel: add config fragment for lttng-modules prerequisites

[Trevor Woerner]

The machines in this layer have no BSP description in yocto-kernel-cache
and build from an in-tree defconfig via KBUILD_DEFCONFIG, so the
standard kernel type's configuration never reaches them. Neither the arm
nor the arm64 defconfig enables what lttng-modules needs: kprobes is a
hard compile failure, and without the tracing infrastructure the build
silently produces no modules at all.

Ship the missing subset as a fragment in the layer's own kmeta, so it
resolves for any recipe here rather than only for ones that fetch the
kernel cache.

changes in v3:
- move the fragment into the layer's own kmeta and reference it from
  KERNEL_FEATURES, rather than adding a bare .cfg to SRC_URI, so it sits
  with the layer's other kernel metadata and can be named
- enable CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS, and justify the symbol set by what
  ktypes/standard already gives a cache-described BSP (features/kprobes,
  features/ftrace) rather than deriving it from first principles
- leave CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL unset: ktypes/base sets it to n, so the
  lttng writeback probe is dropped everywhere and this layer should not
  diverge
- considered yocto-cfg-fragments (as meta-virtualization does) and
  CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS as a lighter route to tracepoints; both
  were dropped in favour of matching the standard kernel type, which
  every other linux-yocto BSP already gets
