Format management.


Creating new formats
--------------------

A new format named 'foo-bar' corresponds to Python module
'tracetool/format/foo_bar.py'.

A format module should provide a docstring, whose first non-empty line will be
considered its short description.

All formats must generate their contents through the 'tracetool.out' routine.
