tracing: Make undefsyms_base.c a first-class citizen

Linus points out that dumping undefsyms_base.c form the Makefile
is rather ugly, and that a much better course of action would be
to have this file as a first-class citizen in the git tree.

This allows some extra cleanup in the Makefile, and the removal of
the .gitignore file in kernel/trace.
