tracing/probes: Have kprobes and uprobes use $COMM too
Both $comm and $COMM can be used to get current->comm in eprobes and the filtering and histogram logic. Make kprobes and uprobes consistent in this regard and allow both $comm and $COMM as well. Currently kprobes and uprobes only handle $comm, which is inconsistent with the other utilities, and can be confusing to users.
