ftrace: Allow setting the number of cmdlines saved by ftrace

Browse Source 
While tracing, ftrace records a mapping of PIDs to cmdlines. By default, it will
only record up to 128 such entries, which is not enough for a typical android
system. The consequence is trace-cmd reporting "<...>" as cmdline.

Allow setting that number to a higher value, and default to a comfortable 4096
entries.
