ljca_diag_set_trace_level send LJCA_DIAG_SET_TRACE_LEVEL command to LJCA
FW to set FW log level.

Sorry for the doc missing. will try to add more details on comments and
Documentation/ABI/ entries.

The firmware log was printed through UART port of LJCA device to another
computer just for debugging purposes. After sending LJCA_DIAG_SET_TRACE_LEVEL
command to LJCA device, it will print logging according to the log level sent
before.
