Regarding the history of the quoting limitation, see commit
cf85cf8e972f3ad79f203be4edb7968d6e052293 ("trace: Format strings must
begin/end with double quotes"). It was a limitation of the old
tracetool.sh script.
The modern tracetool.py script handles format strings fine when they do
not end with double-quotes.
