tracetool: Update argument format regex to non-greedy star
Using the greedy star matching, arguments like "...%"PRIx64 caused issues
for functions with multiple PRI formats.
The issue was only seen with the ust backend, as it is the only one
using the format regex.
The result for many functions was that the arguments coming after the
greedy star end was left out of the tracepoint, and in some cases some
of the arguments that was traced had the wrong format.
