MINOR: trace: add per-level macros to produce traces

The new TRACE_<level>() macros take a mask, 4 args, a callback and a
static message. From this they also inherit the TRACE_SOURCE macro from
the caller, which contains the pointer to the trace source (so that it's
not required to paste it everywhere), and an ist string is also made by
the concatenation of the file name and the line number. This uses string
concatenation by the preprocessor, and turns it into an ist by the compiler
so that there is no operation at all to perform to adjust the data length
as the compiler knows where to cut during the optimization phase. Last,
the message is also automatically turned into an ist so that it's trivial
to put it into an iovec without having to run strlen() on it.

All arguments and the callback may be empty and will then automatically
be replaced with a NULL pointer. This makes the TRACE calls slightly
lighter especially since arguments are not always used. Several other
options were considered to use variadic macros but there's no outstanding
rule that justifies to place an argument before another one, and it still
looks convenient to have the message be the last one to encourage copy-
pasting of the trace statements.

A generic TRACE() macro takes TRACE_LEVEL in from the source file as the
trace level instead of taking it from its name. This may slightly simplify
the production of traces that always run at the same level (internal core
parts may probably only be called at developer level).
