Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 ships Python 2.4.3. The all() function was
added in Python 2.5 so we cannot use it.

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.

Public backends are those printed by "--list-backends" and thus considered valid
by the configure script.

The pkgutil.iter_modules() function provides a way to enumerate child
modules. Unfortunately it's missing in Python <2.7 so we must implement
similar behavior ourselves.

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.
