It is assumed that AUX area decoding will
synthesize events for consumption by other tools.
At this time, the main use of AUX area tracing will be
to capture instruction trace (aka processor trace) data.
The nature of instruction tracing suggests the
initial inclusion of options for "instructions"
and "branches" events, but more could be added
as needed.
