trace: disallow more than 10 arguments per trace event

The UST trace backend can only cope with upto 10 arguments. To ensure we
don't exceed the limit when UST is not compiled in, disallow more than
10 arguments upfront.

This prevents the case where:

    COLO-compare: Optimize tcp compare trace event

    Optimize two trace events as one, adjust print format make
    it easy to read. rename trace_colo_compare_pkt_info_src/dst
    to trace_colo_compare_tcp_info.

    net: split colo_compare_pkt_info into two trace events

    It seems there is a limit to the number of arguments a UST trace event
    can take and at 11 the previous trace command broke the build. Split the
    trace into a src pkt and dst pkt trace to fix this.

Now we get an immediate fail even when UST is disabled:
