objtool: Add option to trace function validation
Add an option to trace and have information during the validation of specified functions. Functions are specified with the --trace option which can be a single function name (e.g. --trace foo to trace the function with the name "foo"), or a shell wildcard pattern (e.g. --trace foo* to trace all functions with a name starting with "foo").
