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.

Remove the notion of there being a single global array
of trace events, by introducing a method for registering
groups of events.
The module_call_init() needs to be invoked at the start
of any program that wants to make use of the trace
support. Currently this covers system emulators qemu-nbd,
qemu-img and qemu-io.

The bsd-user/linux-user programs make use of the CPU emulation
code and this now requires that the trace events subsystem
is enabled, otherwise it'll crash trying to allocate an empty
trace events bitmap for the CPU object.

Currently simpletrace assumes that events are given IDs
starting from 0, based on the order in which they appear
in the trace-events file, with no gaps. When the
trace-events file is split up, this assumption becomes
problematic.
To deal with this, extend the simpletrace format so that
it outputs a table of event name <-> ID mappings. That
will allow QEMU to assign arbitrary IDs to events without
breaking simpletrace parsing.
The v3 simple trace format was
FILE HEADER
EVENT TRACE RECORD 0
EVENT TRACE RECORD 1
...
EVENT TRACE RECORD N
The v4 simple trace format is now
FILE HEADER
EVENT MAPPING RECORD 0
EVENT MAPPING RECORD 1
...
EVENT MAPPING RECORD M
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 0
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 1
...
EVENT TRACE RECORD N
Although this shows all the mapping records being emitted
upfront, this is not required by the format. While the main
simpletrace backend will emit all mappings at startup,
the systemtap simpletrace.stp script will emit the mappings
at first use. eg
FILE HEADER
...
EVENT MAPPING RECORD 0
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 0
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 1
EVENT MAPPING RECORD 1
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 2
...
EVENT TRACE RECORD N
This is more space efficient given that most trace records
only include a subset of events.
In modifying the systemtap simpletrace code, a 'begin' probe
was added to emit the trace event header, so you no longer
need to add '--no-header' when running simpletrace.py for
systemtap generated trace files.

The TraceEventID and TraceEventVCPUID enums constants are
no longer actually used for anything critical.
The TRACE_EVENT_COUNT limit is used to determine the size
of the TraceEvents array, and can be removed if we just
NULL terminate the array instead.
The TRACE_VCPU_EVENT_COUNT limit is used as a magic value
for marking non-vCPU events, and also for declaring the
size of the trace dstate mask in the CPUState struct.
The former usage can be replaced by a dedicated constant
TRACE_EVENT_VCPU_NONE, defined as (uint32_t)-1. For the
latter usage, we can simply define a constant for the
number of VCPUs, avoiding the need for the full enum.
The only other usages of the enum values can be replaced
by accesing the id/vcpu_id fields via the named TraceEvent
structs.

The trace-events "disable" keyword turns an event into a nop at
compile-time. This is important for high-frequency events that can
impact performance.
The "disable" keyword is currently broken in the simple trace backend.
This patch fixes the problem as follows:
Trace events are identified by their TraceEventID number. When events
are disabled there are two options for assigning TraceEventID numbers:
1. Skip disabled events and don't assign them a number.
2. Assign numbers for all events regardless of the disabled keyword.
The simple trace backend and its binary file format uses approach #1.
The tracetool infrastructure has been using approach #2 for a while.
The result is that the numbers used in simple trace files do not
correspond with TraceEventIDs. In trace/simple.c we assumed that they
are identical and therefore emitted bogus numbers.
This patch fixes the bug by using TraceEventID for trace_event_id()
while sticking to approach #1 for simple trace file numbers. This
preserves simple trace file format compatibility.
