tracing: Documentation / sample code fixes for tracepoints 

Fix the tracepoint documentation to refer to "tracepoint-sample"
instead of "tracepoint-example" to match what actually exists;
fix the directory, and clarify how to compile.

Change every instance of "example" in the sample tracepoint code
to "sample" for consistency.

Compile them with your kernel.
Compile them with your kernel. They are built during 'make' (not
'make modules') when CONFIG_SAMPLE_TRACEPOINTS=m.
Run, as root :
modprobe tracepoint-example (insmod order is not important)
modprobe tracepoint-probe-example
cat /proc/tracepoint-example (returns an expected error)
rmmod tracepoint-example tracepoint-probe-example
