DAMON's virtual address spaces monitoring primitive uses 'struct pid *'
of the target process as its monitoring target id. The kernel address
is exposed as-is to the user space via the DAMON tracepoint,
'damon_aggregated'.
Though primarily only privileged users are allowed to access that, it
would be better to avoid unnecessarily exposing kernel pointers so.
Because the trace result is only required to be able to distinguish each
target, we aren't need to use the pointer as-is.
This makes the tracepoint to use the index of the target in the
context's targets list as its id in the tracepoint, to hide the kernel
space address.

In Damon, we can get age information by analyzing the nr_access change,
But short time sampling is not effective, we have to obtain enough data
for analysis through long time trace, this also means that we need to
consume more cpu resources and storage space.
Now the region add a new 'age' variable, we only need to get the change of
age value through a little time trace, for example, age has been
increasing to 141, but nr_access shows a value of 0 at the same time,
Through this，we can conclude that the region has a very low nr_access
value for a long time.

This commit adds a tracepoint for DAMON. It traces the monitoring results
of each region for each aggregation interval. Using this, DAMON can
easily integrated with tracepoints supporting tools such as perf.
