Introduce error_report_start and error_report_end tracepoints.
Those can be used in debugging tools like KASAN, KFENCE, etc.
to provide extensions to the error reporting mechanisms (e.g. allow
tests hook into error reporting, ease error report collection from
production kernels).
Another benefit would be making use of ftrace for debugging or
benchmarking the tools themselves.

v2: - change error_report_start and error_report_end prototypes
      to accept enum error_detector instead of char*
      (as suggested by Steven Rostedt)
