tracing/syscalls: use a dedicated file header

Impact: fix a build error on IA64

Building a kernel on ia64 might trigger the following crash:

sys_ia32.c includes linux/syscalls.h which in turn includes linux/ftrace.h
to import the syscalls tracing prototypes.
But including ftrace.h can pull too much things for a low level file,
especially on ia64 where the ia32 private headers conflict with higher level
headers.

Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.
