# primitives for emitting traces to a 'trace' stream, and for tests to make assertions on its contents
#
# A trace stream looks like a regular stream:
#   write: int  # index at which writes go
#   read: int  # index that we've read until
#   data: (array byte)  # prefixed by length as usual
# Usually the trace stream will be in a separate segment set aside for the purpose.
#
# primitives for operating on traces (arguments in quotes):
#   - initialize-trace-stream: populates Trace-stream with a new segment of the given 'size'
#   - trace: adds a 'line' to Trace-stream
#   - check-trace-contains: scans from Trace-stream's start for a matching 'line', prints a 'message' to stderr on failure
#   - check-trace-scans-to: scans from Trace-stream's read pointer for a matching 'line', prints a 'message' to stderr on failure
