arch_topology: Trace the update thermal pressure
Add trace event to capture the moment of the call for updating the thermal pressure value. It's helpful to investigate how often those events occur in a system dealing with throttling. This trace event is needed since the old 'cdev_update' might not be used by some drivers. The old 'cdev_update' trace event only provides a cooling state value: [0, n]. That state value then needs additional tools to translate it: state -> freq -> capacity -> thermal pressure. This new trace event just stores proper thermal pressure value in the trace buffer, no need for additional logic. This is helpful for cooperation when someone can simply sends to the list the trace buffer output from the platform (no need from additional information from other subsystems). There are also platforms which due to some design reasons don't use cooling devices and thus don't trigger old 'cdev_update' trace event. They are also important and measuring latency for the thermal signal raising/decaying characteristics is in scope. This new trace event would cover them as well. We already have a trace point 'pelt_thermal_tp' which after a change to trace event can be paired with this new 'thermal_pressure_update' and derive more insight what is going on in the system under thermal pressure (and why).
