tracing: Add NOT to filtering logic
Ted noticed that he could not filter on an event for a bit being cleared. That's because the filtering logic only tests event fields with a limited number of comparisons which, for bit logic, only include "&", which can test if a bit is set, but there's no good way to see if a bit is clear. This adds a way to do: !(field & 2048) Which returns true if the bit is not set, and false otherwise. Note, currently !(field1 == 10 && field2 == 15) is not supported. That is, the 'not' only works for direct comparisons, not for the AND and OR logic.
