Łukasz Langa a785c87d6e DTrace support: function calls, GC activity, line execution
Tested on macOS 10.11 dtrace, Ubuntu 16.04 SystemTap, and libbcc.

Largely based by an initial patch by Jesús Cea Avión, with some
influence from Dave Malcolm's SystemTap patch and Nikhil Benesch's
unification patch.

Things deliberately left out for simplicity:
- ustack helpers, I have no way of testing them at this point since
they are Solaris-specific
- PyFrameObject * in function__entry/function__return, this is
SystemTap-specific
- SPARC support
- dynamic tracing
- sys module dtrace facility introspection

All of those might be added later.

Python HOWTOs
***************
Python HOWTOs are documents that cover a single, specific topic,
and attempt to cover it fairly completely. Modelled on the Linux
Documentation Project's HOWTO collection, this collection is an
effort to foster documentation that's more detailed than the
Python Library Reference.
Currently, the HOWTOs are:
