trace-cmd: Add trace-cmd stream
Add 'trace-cmd stream' which streams data from the ring buffer binary files and converts them to human readable format and outputs them to stdout. This is mainly added to be the infrastructure of the profile command. Stream is the same as record except that it does not take an output file parameter (-o), and does not write a file.
