tracing: Remove tracing_alloc_snapshot() when snapshot isn't defined

The function tracing_alloc_snapshot() is only used between trace.c and
trace_snapshot.c. When snapshot isn't configured, it's not used at all.
The stub function was defined as a global with no users and no prototype
causing build issues.

Remove the function when snapshot isn't configured as nothing is calling
it.

Also remove the EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() that was associated with it as it's
not used outside of the tracing subsystem which also includes any modules.
