This is needed as otherwise messages from system_profile
will not be guaranteed to arrive before trace delivered.

OTP-13497
This trace event is triggered when a process is created from the
process that is created.

This commit completes the tracing for processes so that
all messages sent by a process (via nifs or otherwise) will
be traced.
The commit also adds tracing of all types of events from ports.
When enabling tracing using erlang:trace, the 'all' flag now also
enables tracing on all ports.

Add the possibility to use modules as trace data receivers. The functions
in the module have to be nifs as otherwise complex trace probes will be
very hard to handle (complex means trace probes for ports for example).
This commit changes the way that the ptab->tracer field works from always
being an immediate, to now be NIL if no tracer is present or else be
the tuple {TracerModule, TracerState} where TracerModule is an atom that
is later used to lookup the appropriate tracer callbacks to call and
TracerState is just passed to the tracer callback. The default process and
port tracers have been rewritten to use the new API.
This commit also changes the order which trace messages are delivered to the
potential tracer process. Any enif_send done in a tracer module may be delayed
indefinitely because of lock order issues. If a message is delayed any other
trace message send from that process is also delayed so that order is preserved
for each traced entity. This means that for some trace events (i.e. send/receive)
the events may come in an unintuitive order (receive before send) to the
trace receiver. Timestamps are taken when the trace message is generated so
trace messages from differented processes may arrive with the timestamp
out of order.
Both the erlang:trace and seq_trace:set_system_tracer accept the new tracer
module tracers and also the backwards compatible arguments.

New timestamp options for trace, sequential trace, and
system profile:
- monotonic_timestamp
- strict_monotonic_timestamp

The call_time trace is a special kind of tracing that requires
a tracer process just like ordinary call trace, but it never
actually sends anything to the tracer. It merely use the existence
of a trace process (and call trace flags) as an indication that
call_time tracing is active for the process.
If the tracer dies in a non-SMP run-time system, processes with
call_time tracing would not notice that the tracer had
died. Furthermore, if the set_on_spawn flag was active, the dead
tracer could be propagaged to newly spawned processes.
Before accumulating trace information in a non-SMP system, always
validate the tracer process. (In an SMP system, a reference to a
dead tracer will be cleared away each time a process is scheduled.)
While we could put all of the new code beam_bp.c, we have chosen to
make a function call from beam_bp.c to a function in erl_trace.c for
clarity's sake and to ease further maintenance. In the future, we
might want to handle tracing in more similar ways in the SMP and
non-SMP system.
