This series started off with fixing some compile failures seen
with dtrace and ust backends, and got somewhat out of hand as
I looked more deeply at the trace code. So it ended up doing
various bits of code cleanup and memory usage optimizations.

The optimizations aren't huge against each individual binaries.
There are too many scenarios to show the full set, but here
are some binary size examples

The current git master baseline for different enabled
backends  on the x86_64 emulator:

  nop 88546360
  dtrace 90604496
  ftrace 93265944
  log 93799528
  syslog 93962704
  simple 97064528
  ust 162999944
  dtrace,ftrace,log,syslog,simple,ust 174438088

'ust' has insanely high overhead in terms of binary sizes,
inexplicably insane.

'ftrace/log/syslog' are all similar because their overhead
is dominated by the printf() format strings which are
identical in all.

'simple' is a bit worse because of the helper functions we
must generated for each probe

After this series is applied the results for x86_64 are

  nop 88510248
  dtrace 90576160
  ftrace 93156320
  log 93735064
  syslog 93853480
  simple 97050856
  ust 162957256
  dtrace,ftrace,log,syslog,simple,ust 174431128

IOW, for 'dtrace', we save 28k, for 'log' we save 62k

For the aarch64 binary, we see bigger saving in some
cases:

  baseline dtrace 127610144
  baseline log 131050320
     trace dtrace 127459264
     trace log  130998872

IOW, for 'dtrace' we save 150k, for 'log' we only save
50k. No clue why the saving is not so significant for
the 'log' backend but not a big deal.

Changed in v3:

 * Include QEMU log mask check in Rust generated code too
 * Eliminate duplicate state checks in DSTATE macro

Changed in v2:

 * Improve some commit messages
 * Updated tracing.rst docs
