tracing: Avoid calling cc-option -mrecord-mcount for every Makefile
Currently if CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD is enabled -mrecord-mcount
compiler flag support is tested for every Makefile.
Top 4 cc-option usages:
511 -mrecord-mcount
11 -fno-stack-protector
9 -Wno-override-init
2 -fsched-pressure
To address that move cc-option from scripts/Makefile.build to top Makefile
and export CC_USING_RECORD_MCOUNT to be used in original place.
While doing that also add -mrecord-mcount to CC_FLAGS_FTRACE (if gcc
actually supports it).
