The current way to create an N-dimensional histogram is bit
counterintuitive. We first have to call tracefs_hist_alloc()
which is essentially a constructor of 1d histogram. Then we
have to call tracefs_hist_add_key() N-1 times in order to
increase the dimentions of the histogram. Here we transform
tracefs_hist_alloc() into a constructor of N-dimensional
histogram and we also add 2 helper constructors for 1d and
2d histograms.
