/**
* \class TracingPlugin
*
* \brief Plugin to record instruction traces and memory accesses.
*
* This plugin is supposed to be instantiated, configured and run by
* experiments needing instruction or memory access traces. Tracing can be
* restricted to a memory or instruction address map; the restrictions are
* applied together, i.e., a memory access is only logged if neither its
* instruction address nor its memory address is restricted.
*
* TODO: document usage by example
* FIXME: handle configuration changes after tracing start properly
* FIXME: more explicit startup/shutdown; listener-based event interface needed?
* -> should simulator.removeFlow make sure all remaining active events
* are delivered?
* FIXME: trace a sequence of pb messages, not a giant single one (pb weren't
* made for huge messages)
