x86, bts, ptrace: move BTS buffer allocation from ds.c into ptrace.c
Impact: restructure DS memory allocation to be done by the usage site of DS Require pre-allocated buffers in ds.h. Move the BTS buffer allocation for ptrace into ptrace.c. The pointer to the allocated buffer is stored in the traced task's task_struct together with the handle returned by ds_request_bts(). Removes memory accounting code.
