Re: [PATCH] Trace file support

This patch adds support for trace files, which are simply dumps of a target's tracepoints and trace buffer. In addition to the new "tsave" command to create a trace file, there is a new target "tfile" that opens a trace file and then lets you do tfind and then print any data that was collected, just as for you would do for a live target.
I've just committed all this. Just a few minor changes from the posted version; a NEWS item, a gdbtk tweak, testsuite addition, and fixes for bugs exposed by testsuite :-) . The testsuite bit is notable in that it supposedly can run anywhere, irrespective of architecture and existence live tracing support, by having the test program manually synthesize a trace file. Be sure to let me know if I'm wrong about its portability!
