XXX: Must be applied on top of the "backdoor" patch series and the patch "trace:
Provide a per-event status define for conditional compilation", but is
independent otherwise.
Adds the "instrument" event property. When specified, this event property lets
the user provide her own implementation for that specific tracing event.
Still, in case the user only wants to wrap around the tracing event, the
original tracing implementation is accessible through function
'trace_<eventname>_backend', instead of the original 'trace_<eventname>' (which
now the user has to provide).
The user-provided tracing functions are expected to be in the static library
"libtrace-instrument.a", identified by the "--with-trace-instrument"
configuration parameter and compiled by each of QEMU's target/frontend pairs.
See the documentation added in the second patch for more information.
