The BPF code was incorrectly passing pointer variables by value to
bpf_usdt_readarg(), causing the function to fail silently and resulting
in transaction hashes and reason strings displaying as zeros or garbage.
This fix adds the missing reference operator (&) when passing pointer
variables to bpf_usdt_readarg(), allowing the function to properly
write the pointer values and enabling correct display of transaction
hashes and removal/rejection reasons.
Fixes the regression introduced in ec47ba349d where bpf_usdt_readarg_p
was replaced with bpf_usdt_readarg but the calling convention wasn't
properly updated for pointer arguments.

BCC needs the PID of a bitcoind process to attach to the tracepoints
(instead of the binary path used before) when the tracepoints have a
semaphore.
For reference, we already use the PID in our tracepoint interface
tests. See 220a5a2841.
Tracepoints for added, removed, replaced, and rejected transactions.
The removal reason is passed as string instead of a numeric value, since
the benefits of not having to maintain a redundant enum-string mapping
seem to outweigh the small cost of string generation. The reject reason
is passed as string as well, although here the string does not have to
be generated but is readily available.
So far, tracepoint PRs typically included two demo scripts: a naive
bpftrace script to show raw tracepoint data and a bcc script for a more
refined view. However, as some of the ongoing changes to bpftrace
introduce a certain degree of unreliability (running some of the
existing bpftrace scripts was not possible with standard kernels and
bpftrace packages on latest stable Ubuntu, Debian, and NixOS), this PR
includes only a single bcc script that fuses the functionality of former
bpftrace and bcc scripts.
