docs/devel/tracing.txt explains "since many source files include
trace.h, [the generated trace.h use] a minimum of types and other
header files included to keep the namespace clean and compile times
and dependencies down."
Commit 4815185902 "trace: Add per-vCPU tracing states for events with
the 'vcpu' property" made them all include qom/cpu.h via
control-internal.h. qom/cpu.h in turn includes about thirty headers.
Ouch.
Per-vCPU tracing is currently not supported in sub-directories'
trace-events. In other words, qom/cpu.h can only be used in
trace-root.h, not in any trace.h.
Split trace/control-vcpu.h off trace/control.h and
trace/control-internal.h. Have the generated trace.h include
trace/control.h (which no longer includes qom/cpu.h), and trace-root.h
include trace/control-vcpu.h (which includes it).
The resulting improvement is a bit disappointing: in my "build
everything" tree, some 1100 out of 6600 objects (not counting tests
and objects that don't depend on qemu/osdep.h) depend on a trace.h,
and about 600 of them no longer depend on qom/cpu.h. But more than
1300 others depend on trace-root.h. More work is clearly needed.
Left for another day.

Introduce rules in the top level Makefile that are able to generate
trace.[ch] files in every subdirectory which has a trace-events file.
The top level directory is handled specially, so instead of creating
trace.h, it creates trace-root.h. This allows sub-directories to
include the top level trace-root.h file, without ambiguity wrt to
the trace.g file in the current sub-dir.

The declarations in the generated-tracers.h file are
assuming there's only ever going to be one instance
of this header, as they are not namespaced. When we
have one header per event group, if a single source
file needs to include multiple sets of trace events,
the symbols will all clash.
This change thus introduces a '--group NAME' arg to the
'tracetool' program. This will cause all the symbols in
the generated header files to be given a unique namespace.
If no group is given, the group name 'common' is used,
which is suitable for the current usage where there is
only one global trace-events file used for code generation.

Currently the generated-events.[ch] files contain the
event dstates, constants and TraceEvent structs, while the
generated-tracers.[ch] files contain the actual trace
probe logic. With the removal of usage of the event enums
from the API there is no longer any compelling reason for
the separation between these files. The generated-events.h
content is only ever needed from the generated-tracers.[ch]
files.
The enums/constants/structs from generated-events.[ch] are
thus moved into the generated-tracers.[ch], so that there
is one less file to be generated.

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