Use \w for properties and trace event names since they are both drawn
from [a-zA-Z0-9_] character sets.
The .* for matching properties was too aggressive and caused the
following failure with foo(int rc) "(this is a test)":
Traceback (most recent call last):

TCG-enabled events start with two format strings. Delay per-argument format
computation until requested ('Event.formats').

This makes the UST backend pay attention to the format string arguments
that are defined when defining payload data. With this you can now
ensure integers are reported in hex mode if you want.

Adds support to compile QEMU with multiple tracing backends at the same time.
For example, you can compile QEMU with:
$ ./configure --enable-trace-backends=ftrace,dtrace
Where 'ftrace' can be handy for having an in-flight record of events, and 'dtrace' can be later used to extract more information from the system.
This patch allows having both available without recompiling QEMU.

Backends now only contain the essential backend-specific code, and most of the work is moved to frontend code.

The str.rpartition() function is related to str.split() and is used for
splitting strings. It was introduced in Python 2.5 and therefore cannot
be used in tracetool as Python 2.4 compatibility is required.
Replace the code using str.rsplit().

The tracetool script is written in shell and has hit several portability
problems due to shell quirks or external tools across host platforms.
Additionally the amount of string processing and lack of real data
structures makes it tough to implement code generator backends for
tracers that are more complex.
This patch replaces the shell version of tracetool with a Python
version. The new tracetool design is:
scripts/tracetool.py - top-level script
scripts/tracetool/backend/ - tracer backends live here (simple, ust)
scripts/tracetool/format/ - output formats live here (.c, .h)
There is common code for trace-events definition parsing so that
backends can focus on generating code rather than parsing input.
Support for all existing backends (nop, stderr, simple, ust,
and dtrace) is added back in follow-up patches.
