radv: add initial SQ Thread Trace support for GFX9
SQTT is a hardware block that collects thread trace data (like
wave occupancy, timings, etc) for every draw/dispatch calls.
It's only supported on GFX9 at the moment but I will add other
generations support soon.
This is the first step towards profiling with RADV!
