extend `EventArgRecorder` into span-aware `SpannedEventArgRecorder`

The self-profiler's `EventArgRecorder` is general-purpose in its ability to record Strings (and `rustc_span` depends on the crate its defined in, `rustc_data_structure`).

Some generic activities could use recording locations where they happen in the user's code: to allow e.g. to track macro expansions and diagnose performance issues there.

This adds a `SpannedEventArgRecorder` that can record an argument given as a span, rather than a String, since turning spans into Strings can be tricky if you're not happy with its default Debug output. This way the recorder can have a `record_arg_spanned` method which will do that.
