Update fprobe documentation for the new fprobe on function-graph
tracer. This includes some bahvior changes and pt_regs to
ftrace_regs interface change.

Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

 Changes in v19.1:
  - Fix typo
  - function-graph tracer -> function graph tracing feature in ftrace.
 Changes in v2:
  - Update @fregs parameter explanation.

+Instead of tracing all functions, if you want to attach callbacks on specific

 instrumentation for multiple functions with single handler. This document
 describes how to use fprobe.
