Scoped traces are less error prone, and they can still be ended
prematurely if needed (this commit makes that work). The only case this
doesn't support is starting a trace inside a scope but ending outside,
but this is pretty unusual, plus we have anchored traces for a limited
variation of that.

Group all the three config files from clutter/cogl/meta into one
and also remove unnused configurations and replace duplicated ones
This also fixes Cogl usage of HAS_X11/HAS_XLIB to match the expected
build options

Don't try to handle things by threads enabling/disabling the main trace
context on-demand, just have a clear start/stop API. For the D-Bus API,
it becomes more straight forward, and for the persistent variant too, as
it avoids having to pass garbage input when it's known that arguments
will be discarded.

A trace "anchor" is a trace head (CoglTraceHead) that is placed in a
certain scope (e.g. function scope), but then only triggered in another
scope, e.g. a condition.
This makes it possible to have optional trace instrumentation, that is
enabled only given e.g. a debug flag.

Just like libmutter-clutter, and libmutter, mark exported symbols with
an COGL_EXPORT macro. This removes the .map and .map.in files previously
used, containing a list of semi private symbols. This symbol was out of
date, i.e. pointed to non-existing symbols, and was also replaced with
COGL_EXPORT macros.
unit_test_* symbols are exported by the help of the unit test defining
macro. test_* symbols are no longer supported as it proved unnecessary.

This is so that cogl-trace.h can start using things from cogl-macros.h,
and so that it doesn't leak cogl-config.h into the world, while exposing
it to e.g. gnome-shell so that it can make use of it as well. There is
no practical reason why we shouldn't just include cogl-trace.h via
cogl.h as we do with everything else.

The idea here is to be able to visualize and immediately
understand what is happening. Something like:
```
[ view1 ] [ view2 ]
[---- Layout ---][------ Paint ------][ Pick ]
[================== Update =====================]
```
But with colors. A few of the previous profiling data
sections were removed, since they didn't really add to
reading the graph.

Add the ability to add tracing instrumentation to the code. When
enabled, trace entries will generate a file with timing information
that will be processable by sysprof for generating visualization of
traces over time.
While enabled by default at compile time, it is possible to disable the
expansion of the macros completely by passing --disable-tracing to
./configure.
Tracing is so far only actually done if actually enabled on explicitly
specified threads.
This will be used by Mutter passing the write end of a pipe, where the
read end is sent to Sysprof itself via the D-Bus method 'Capture()'.
By passing that, we have to detect EPIPE that is sent when Sysprof stops
recording. Fortunately, we already ignore the signal at meta_init(), so
no need to add a custom signal handler.
