The syslog backend needs the syslog function from libc and the LOG_INFO enum
value; they are re-exported as "::trace::syslog" and "::trace::LOG_INFO"
so that device crates do not all have to add the libc dependency, but
otherwise there is nothing special.

Create a temporary build subdirectory, to avoid conflicting with other
running tests. This fixes "meson test" with tracetool-test which is
parallel default.

When reviewing tracetool patches it is often very unclear what the
expected output will be for the generated backends. Compounding
this is that a default build will only enable the 'log' trace
backend, so developers won't see generated code for other backends
without making a special effort. Some backends are also platform
specific, so can't be enabled in QEMU builds, even though tracetool
could generate the code.
To address this, introduce a test suite for tracetool which is
conceptually similar to the qapi-schema test. It is a simple
python program that runs tracetool and compares the actual output
to historical reference output kept in git. The test directly
emits TAP format logs for ease of integration with meson.
This can be run with
make check-tracetool
to make it easier for developers changing generated output, the
sample expected content can be auto-recreated
QEMU_TEST_REGENERATE=1 make check-tracetool
and the changes reviewed and added to the commit. This will also
assist reviewers interpreting the change.
Developers are reminded of this in the test output on failure:
$ make check-tracetool
1/6 qemu:tracetool / dtrace OK 0.14s
2/6 qemu:tracetool / ftrace FAIL 0.06s exit status 1

not ok 1 - ftrace.h (set QEMU_TEST_REGENERATE=1 to recreate reference output if tracetool generator was intentionally changed)
