[PATCH v4] tools/rtla: Add osnoise_trace_is_off()

[Costa Shulyupin <costa.shul@redhat.com>]

The usage of trace_is_off() confusing, which requires a detailed
explanation.

Let's modify the source code by moving the first
member, `trace`, of the `osnoise_tool` structure to the second position:

 struct osnoise_tool {
-       struct trace_instance           trace;
        struct osnoise_context          *context;
+       struct trace_instance           trace;

A correct program would work properly after this change,
but this one does not.

Then, run the program under gdb to observe the behavior.

gdb -q --args ./rtla osnoise -D -d 2 -T 10000 -q

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x000000000040298f in trace_is_off (tool=tool@entry=0x418458, trace=trace@entry=0x8) at src/trace.c:538
538             if (trace && !tracefs_trace_is_on(trace->inst))
...

The program checks if trace, which has a value of 8, is not null,
and then crashes when it attempts to dereference trace->inst.

It happens because trace_is_off() is called as:
	trace_is_off(&tool->trace, &record->trace)

Where `record` is NULL. Expression `&record->trace` returns offset of
member `trace`, which is 8. The original code accidentally works because
offset of `record->trace` is zero.

Expanded wrong instructions are:
	record = NULL;
	if (&record->trace && !tracefs_trace_is_on(record->trace.inst))
		return 1;

The correct instructions are:
	record = NULL;
	if (record && !tracefs_trace_is_on(record->trace.inst))
		return 1;

Refactor `trace_is_off` to `osnoise_trace_is_off` and move it to
osnoise.c because it instead of `struct trace_instance` accesses `struct
osnoise_tool`, which is out of the scope of trace.c.
