[PATCH 1/2] trace-cmd: libtracecmd: Fixing linking to C++ code

["Joel Fernandes (Google)" <joel@joelfernandes.org>]

Linking in C++ compilers (including g++) causes references to be created
with their arguments. Due to this, trace library headers included into
C++ code base will cause their objects to built with symbols with
arguments. Apparently this is to support operator overloading in C++.

This causes linker errors. For example, here's what I get when I try to
link libtracecmd with a main.o built from a C++ main.cc source file.

 main.cc:(.text+0x90):
	undefined reference to `tracecmd_get_tep(tracecmd_input*)'
	undefined reference to `tracecmd_free_record(tep_record*)'
	undefined reference to `tracecmd_read_data(tracecmd_input*, int)'

The standard fix for this is to wrap the C project's header in
extern "C".

With this patch, I am able to link libtracecmd into a C++
code base.
