When implemented, the feature in bug #1154 could make all the
on-the-fly configuration interaction look something like this:

global probed
probe procfs("sys/debug/trace-app").write {
  probed[$value] ++
}
probe procfs("sys/debug/traced-apps").read {
  foreach (name in probed) $value .= (i++ > 0 ? " " : "") . name
}
function is_traced_call(name) {
  return (name in probed)
}

Nice job with the rest of the simplified rewrite.
