[PATCH v3 11/18] rtla: Use str_has_prefix() for prefix checks

[Wander Lairson Costa <wander@redhat.com>]

The code currently uses strncmp() combined with strlen() to check if a
string starts with a specific prefix. This pattern is verbose and prone
to errors if the length does not match the prefix string.

Replace this pattern with the str_has_prefix() helper function in both
trace.c and utils.c. This improves code readability and safety by
handling the prefix length calculation automatically.

In addition, remove the unused retval variable from
trace_event_save_hist() in trace.c to clean up the function and
silence potential compiler warnings.
