[PATCH v9 21/52] dyndbg: split multi-query strings with %

Since commit
85f7f6c0edb8 ("dynamic_debug: process multiple debug-queries on a line")
Multi-query commands have been allowed:
modprobe drm dyndbg="class DRM_UT_CORE +p; class DRM_UT_KMS +p"
modprobe drm dyndbg=<<EOX
class DRM_UT_CORE +p
class DRM_UT_KMS +p
EOX
More recently, the need for quoting was avoided by treating a comma
like a space/token-terminator:
modprobe drm dyndbg=class,DRM_UT_CORE,+p\;class,DRM_UT_KMS,+p
That works, but it needs the escaped semicolon, which is a shell
special-char (one of the bash control operators), so it is brittle
when passed in/down/around scripts. In particular, it fails when
passed to vng (virtme-ng).
So this patch adds '%' to the existing ';' and '\n' multi-command
separators, which is more shell-friendly, so you can more fully avoid
quoting and escaping hassles.
NOTE: it does break format matching on '%' patterns:
bash-5.2# ddcmd 'format "find-me: %foo" +p'
[ 203.900581] dyndbg: read 26 bytes from userspace
[ 203.900883] dyndbg: query 0: "format "find-me: " mod:*
[ 203.901118] dyndbg: unclosed quote: find-me:
[ 203.901355] dyndbg: tokenize failed
[ 203.901529] dyndbg: query 1: "foo" +p" mod:*
[ 203.901957] dyndbg: split into words: "foo"" "+p"
[ 203.902243] dyndbg: op='+' flags=0x1 maskp=0xffffffff
[ 203.902458] dyndbg: expecting pairs of match-spec <value>
[ 203.902703] dyndbg: query parse failed
[ 203.902871] dyndbg: processed 2 queries, with 0 matches, 2 errs
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
The '%' splits the input into 2 queries, and both fail. Given the
limited utility of matching against the working parts of a format
string "foo: %d bar %s", nothing is actually lost here.
