tracing: Let filter_assign_type() detect FILTER_PTR_STRING

filter_assign_type() could detect dynamic string and static
string, but not string pointers. Teach filter_assign_type()
to detect string pointers, and this will be needed by trace
event injection code.

BTW, trace event hist uses FILTER_PTR_STRING too.
