tracing: Have hist_debug show what function a field uses

When CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS_DEBUG is enabled, each trace event has a
"hist_debug" file that explains the histogram internal data. This is very
useful for debugging histograms.

One bit of data that was missing from this file was what function a
histogram field uses to process its data. The hist_field structure now has
a fn_num that is used by a switch statement in hist_fn_call() to call a
function directly (to avoid spectre mitigations).

Instead of displaying that number, create a string array that maps to the
histogram function enums so that the function for a field may be
displayed:

 ~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/hist_debug
[..]
hist_data: 0000000043d62762

  n_vals: 2
  n_keys: 1
  n_fields: 3

  val fields:

    hist_data->fields[0]:
      flags:
        VAL: HIST_FIELD_FL_HITCOUNT
      type: u64
      size: 8
      is_signed: 0
      function: hist_field_counter()

    hist_data->fields[1]:
      flags:
        HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR
      var.name: __arg_3921_2
      var.idx (into tracing_map_elt.vars[]): 0
      type: unsigned long[]
      size: 128
      is_signed: 0
      function: hist_field_nop()

  key fields:

    hist_data->fields[2]:
      flags:
        HIST_FIELD_FL_KEY
      ftrace_event_field name: prev_pid
      type: pid_t
      size: 8
      is_signed: 1
      function: hist_field_s32()

The "function:" field above is added.
