include blktrace_api.h in headers_install

This header file is of interest for user space programming, i.e.
for tools that process blktrace data.

We would like to use it for a tool on-top of blktrace which processes
data provided by blktrace. For this purpose, it would be helpful
if the blktrace API would make it to /usr/include/linux.

The git tree for the blktrace tools comes with its own copy of this header
file. I didn't manage to replace that copy with the file generated
by the patch below yet. A few more cleanups would be needed.
For example, the blktrace ioctl numbers, which are currently defined in
usr/include/fs.h, might need to be moved. Should be feasible, though.
