tracing: Add boiler plate for subsystem filter

The system filter can be used to set multiple event filters that
exist within the system. But currently it displays the last filter
written that does not necessarily correspond to the filters within
the system. The system filter itself is not used to filter any events.
The system filter is just a means to set filters of the events within
it.

Because this causes an ambiguous state when the system filter reads
a filter string but the events within the system have different strings
it is best to just show a boiler plate:

 ### global filter ###
 # Use this to set filters for multiple events.
 # Only events with the given fields will be affected.
 # If no events are modified, an error message will be displayed here.

If an error occurs while writing to the system filter, the system
filter will replace the boiler plate with the error message as it
currently does.
