tracing: Remove sysprof ftrace plugin 



The sysprof ftrace plugin doesn't seem to be seriously used
somewhere. There is a branch in the sysprof tree that makes
an interface to it, but the real sysprof tool uses either its
own module or perf events.

Drop the sysprof ftrace plugin then, as it's mostly useless.
