This was merged to master prematurely as the job components are not decoupled well enough
for these signals to be useful yet.
This reverts commit 2c8c2cfa14.
closes#452
package trace:
- introduce the concept of tasks and spans, tracked as linked list within ctx
- see package-level docs for an overview of the concepts
- **main feature 1**: unique stack of task and span IDs
- makes it easy to follow a series of log entries in concurrent code
- **main feature 2**: ability to produce a chrome://tracing-compatible trace file
- either via an env variable or a `zrepl pprof` subcommand
- this is not a CPU profile, we already have go pprof for that
- but it is very useful to visually inspect where the
replication / snapshotter / pruner spends its time
( fixes#307 )
usage in package daemon/logging:
- goal: every log entry should have a trace field with the ID stack from package trace
- make `logging.GetLogger(ctx, Subsys)` the authoritative `logger.Logger` factory function
- the context carries a linked list of injected fields which
`logging.GetLogger` adds to the logger it returns
- `logging.GetLogger` also uses package `trace` to get the
task-and-span-stack and injects it into the returned logger's fields
