Add `-Z instrument-mcount`

This flag inserts `mcount` function call to the beginning of every function
after inline processing. So tracing tools like uftrace [1] (or ftrace for
Linux kernel modules) have a chance to examine function calls.

It is similar to the `-pg` flag provided by gcc or clang, but without
generating a `__gmon_start__` function for executables. If a program
runs without being traced, no `gmon.out` will be written to disk.

Under the hood, it simply adds `"instrument-function-entry-inlined"="mcount"`
attribute to every function. The `post-inline-ee-instrument` LLVM pass does
the actual job.
