process: set the trace category update handler during bootstrap

Set the trace category update handler during bootstrap, but delay
the initial invocation of it until pre-execution. In addition, do
not serialize the `node.async_hooks` category state when loading
the trace_event binding during bootstrap, since it depends on
run time states (e.g. CLI flags). Instead, use the
`isTraceCategoryEnabled` v8 intrinsics to query that value during
pre-execution.
