Fix: Use default visibility for tracepoint provider symbol

When building a probe provider `someprobe` with -fvisibility=hidden into
a shared library, the `__tracepoint_provider_someprobe` symbol is hidden,
which does not allow tracepoint instrumentation to link to it.

Fix this by using the "default" visibility attribute.

For a shared library built with -fvisibility=hidden, this changes the
output of nm for that symbol from:

000000000000417c b __tracepoint_provider_someprobe

(local BSS symbol)

to

000000000000417c B __tracepoint_provider_someprobe

(global (external) BSS symbol)
