Patches that change tracetool can break the build if old build output
files are lying around.
This happens because the Makefile does not specify dependencies on
tracetool. The build will use old object files that do not match the
current source code.

The Makefile uses intermediate timestamp files to avoid rebuilding if
tracetool output is unchanged.
Timestamps are implemented incorrectly. This was fixed for rules.mak in
commit 4b25966ab9 ("rules.mak: cleanup
config generation rules") but never fixed in trace/Makefile.objs.
The problem with the old timestamp implementation was that make doesn't
notice the updated file modification time until the next time it is run.
It was necessary to run make twice in a row to achieve a full rebuild.

In any other cases the object file is effectively empty, which is
disliked by ranlib and nm on Mac OS X.

Generate header "trace/generated-tcg-tracers.h" with the necessary routines for
tracing events in guest code:
* trace_${event}_tcg
Convenience wrapper that calls the translation-time tracer
'trace_${event}_trans', and calls 'gen_helper_trace_${event}_exec to
generate the TCG code to later trace the event at execution time.

Generates header "trace/generated-helpers-wrappers.h" with definitions for TCG
helper wrappers.
These wrappers ('gen_helper_trace_${event}_exec_wrapper') transform mixed native
and TCG argument types to TCG types and call the actual TCG helpers
('gen_helper_trace_${event}_exec_proxy').

Generates file "trace/generated-helpers.c" with TCG helper definitions to trace
events in guest code at execution time.
The helpers ('helper_trace_${event}_exec_proxy') cast the TCG-compatible native
argument types to their original types (as defined in "trace-events") and call
the tracing routine ('trace_${event}_exec').

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.

This patch adds a ftrace tracing backend which sends trace event to
ftrace marker file. You can effectively compare qemu trace data and
kernel(especially, kvm.ko when using KVM) trace data.
The ftrace backend is restricted to Linux only.
To try out the ftrace backend:
$ ./configure --trace-backend=ftrace
$ make
if you use KVM, enable kvm events in ftrace:
# sudo echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kvm/enable
After running qemu by root user, you can get the trace:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

Make sure to rebuild generated-events.o when ./configure options change.
This prevents linker errors when a stale generated-events.o gets linked
with code compiled against fresh headers. For example, try building
with ./configure --enable-trace-backend=stderr followed by ./configure
--enable-trace-backend=dtrace.

Uses tracetool to generate a backend-independent tracing event description
(struct TraceEvent).
The values for such structure are generated with the non-public "events"
backend ("events-c" frontend).
The generation of the defines to check if an event is statically enabled is also
moved to the "events" backend ("events-h" frontend).
