Several parameters now set with "stap -DFOO=bar ..." turn into compile-time
macros/constants, and are not changeable at run time. It would be nice to turn
some of them into special variables that show up as plain integers in C code,
and are changeable with module options. This will be especially handy once we
have bug #2208 done.
Ordinary script globals already support initialization via module-params. These
extra parameters would intrude on the same namespace, but that's OK. For
backward compatibility, the "-DPARAM=value" could still function as an
initialization of the parameter.
examples:
MAXERRORS
MAXSKIPPED
MAXACTION
MAXMAPENTRIES
negative examples (i.e., these affect compile-time struct layout)
MAXSTRINGLEN
MAXNESTING

One might pursue some such things with special /*guru*/ tapset functions to
clear counters instead.
