The use of dashes -- in general, but especially in our docs -- can be
problematic. It is used inconsistently and there is always another form
of punctuation that is as good or better for the situation. In an effort
to reduce the number of variations we use to display the same types of
information, remove the various uses of dashes from the documentation.

Forbid modifying tracing state from worker threads, either
through the built-in module or inspector sessions, since
the main thread owns all global state, and at least
the `async_hooks` integration is definitely not thread

Add basic trace events for node_contextify. These generally
align very well with V8.ScriptCompile and V8.ScriptExecute
trace events and provide good additional context. For instance,
using the node.vm.script trace category at startup allows us to
see exactly how long compilation and init of each of our core
modules adds to the startup time.

Removes the requirement to use `--trace-events-enabled` to enable
trace events. Tracing is enabled automatically if there are any
enabled categories.
Adds a new `trace_events` module with an API for enabling/disabling
trace events at runtime without a command line flag.
```js
const trace_events = require('trace_events');
const categories = [ 'node.perf', 'node.async_hooks' ];
const tracing = trace_events.createTracing({ categories });
tracing.enable();
// do stuff
tracing.disable();
```
Multiple `Tracing` objects may exist and be enabled at any point
in time. The enabled trace event categories is the union of all
enabled `Tracing` objects and the `--trace-event-categories`
flag.

This commit adds support for trace-event tracing to Node.js. It provides
a mechanism to centralize tracing information generated by V8, Node
core, and userspace code. It includes:
- A trace writer responsible for serializing traces and cycling the
output files so that no individual file becomes to large.
- A buffer for aggregating traces to allow for batched flushes.
- An agent which initializes the tracing controller and ensures that
trace serialization is done on a separate thread.
- A set of macros for generating trace events.
- Tests and documentation.
