Clear trace_state data structure when starting trace in __synth_event_trace_start() internal function. Currently trace_state is initialized only in the synth_event_trace_start() API, but the trace_state in synth_event_trace() and synth_event_trace_array() are on the stack without initialization. This means those APIs will see wrong parameters and wil skip closing process in __synth_event_trace_end() because trace_state->disabled may be !0.
