tracing/events: Convert format output to seq_file

Two new events were added that broke the current format output.

Both from the SCSI system: scsi_dispatch_cmd_done and scsi_dispatch_cmd_timeout

The reason is that their print_fmt exceeded a page size. Since the output
of the format used simple_read_from_buffer and trace_seq, it was limited
to a page size in output.

This patch converts the printing of the format of an event into seq_file,
which allows greater than a page size to be shown.

I diffed all event formats comparing the output with and without this
patch. All matched except for the above two, which showed just:

  FORMAT TOO BIG

without this patch, but now properly displays the output with this patch.

v2: Remove updating *pos in seq start function.
