The osnoise tracer is not only a tracer, and a set of tracepoints,
but also a workload dispatcher.
In preparation for having other workloads, e.g., in user-space,
add an option to avoid dispatching the workload.
By not dispatching the workload, the osnoise: tracepoints become
generic events to measure the execution time of *any* task on Linux.
For example:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# cat osnoise/options
DEFAULTS OSNOISE_WORKLOAD
# echo NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD > osnoise/options
# cat osnoise/options
NO_DEFAULTS NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD
# echo osnoise > set_event
# echo osnoise > current_tracer
# tail -8 trace
