ftrace: document function and function graph implementation

While implementing function tracer and function tracer graph support,
I found the exact arch implementation details to be a bit lacking
(and my x86 foo ain't great).  So after pounding out support for
the Blackfin arch, start documenting the requirements/details.

This gets selected when the arch tests the function_trace_stop
variable at the mcount call site. Otherwise, this variable
is tested by the called function.
