kshark_entry contains all information from one trace record, needed
in order to visualize the time-series of trace records. Here we
reorganize the data fields of kshark_entry in order to make room for
the unique identifier of the Data stream this entry belongs to.

The Id is coded in 16 bits that are taken from the "event_id" field.
So far "event_id" uses 32 bits but we found that it is coded with only
16 bits inside the kernel, so we still have 16 unused (spare) bits in
it.

Because the stream Id is coded with int8_t, we need to set an upper
limit (127) for the total number of Data streams loaded.
