4ade0541de trace: Add a proper API to manage auto-generated events from the 'tcg' property
Formalizes the existence of the 'event_trans' and 'event_exec' event
attributes, which until now were monkey-patched only when necessary.

3d211d9f4d trace: Add 'vcpu' event property to trace guest vCPU
This property identifies events that trace vCPU-specific information.

It adds a "CPUState*" argument to events with the property, identifying
the vCPU raising the event. TCG translation events also have a
"TCGv_env" implicit argument that is later used as the "CPUState*"
argument at execution time.

776ec96f79 Tracing: Fix simpletrace.py error on tcg enabled binary traces
simpletrace.py does not recognize the tcg option while reading trace-events  file. In result simpletrace does not work on binary traces and tcg enabled events. Moved transformation of tcg enabled events to _read_events() which is used by simpletrace.

f9bbba9569 trace: tighten up trace-events regex to fix bad parse
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)":

5b808275f3 trace: Multi-backend tracing
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.

b3ef0ade57 tracetool: avoid str.rpartition() Python 2.5 function
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().

650ab98d1d tracetool: Rewrite infrastructure as python modules
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.
