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.
