pstore: Introduce write_buf backend callback
For function tracing we need to stop using pstore.buf directly, since in a tracing callback we can't use spinlocks, and thus we can't safely use the global buffer. With write_buf callback, backends no longer need to access pstore.buf directly, and thus we can pass any buffers (e.g. allocated on stack).
