bpf: Fix the build on BPF_SYSCALL=y && !CONFIG_TRACING kernels, make it more configurable

So bpf_tracing.o depends on CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL - but that's not its only
dependency, it also depends on the tracing infrastructure and on kprobes,
without which it will fail to build with:

  In file included from kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:14:0:
  kernel/trace/trace.h: In function ‘trace_test_and_set_recursion’:
  kernel/trace/trace.h:491:28: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member named ‘trace_recursion’
    unsigned int val = current->trace_recursion;
  [...]

It took quite some time to trigger this build failure, because right now
BPF_SYSCALL is very obscure, depends on CONFIG_EXPERT. So also make BPF_SYSCALL
more configurable, not just under CONFIG_EXPERT.

If BPF_SYSCALL, tracing and kprobes are enabled then enable the bpf_tracing
gateway as well.

We might want to make this an interactive option later on, although
I'd not complicate it unnecessarily: enabling BPF_SYSCALL is enough of
an indicator that the user wants BPF support.
