trace2: move doc to trace2.h

Move the functions documentation from
Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt to trace2.h as it's easier for the
developers to find the usage information beside the code instead of looking
for it in another doc file.

Only the functions documentation section is removed from
Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt as the file is full of
details that seemed more appropriate to be in a separate doc file
as it is, with a link to the doc file added in the trace2.h.
Also the functions doc is removed to avoid having redundandt info which
will be hard to keep syncronized with the documentation in the header file.

 === Basic Command Messages
 
 These are concerned with the lifetime of the overall git process.
-
-`void trace2_initialize_clock()`::
-
-	Initialize the Trace2 start clock and nothing else.  This should
-	be called at the very top of main() to capture the process start
-	time and reduce startup order dependencies.
-
-`void trace2_initialize()`::
-
-	Determines if any Trace2 Targets should be enabled and
-	initializes the Trace2 facility.  This includes setting up the
-	Trace2 thread local storage (TLS).
-+
-This function emits a "version" message containing the version of git
-and the Trace2 protocol.
-+
-This function should be called from `main()` as early as possible in
-the life of the process after essential process initialization.
-
-`int trace2_is_enabled()`::
-
-	Returns 1 if Trace2 is enabled (at least one target is
-	active).
-
-`void trace2_cmd_start(int argc, const char **argv)`::
-
-	Emits a "start" message containing the process command line
-	arguments.
-
-`int trace2_cmd_exit(int exit_code)`::
-
-	Emits an "exit" message containing the process exit-code and
-	elapsed time.
-+
-Returns the exit-code.
-
-`void trace2_cmd_error(const char *fmt, va_list ap)`::
-
-	Emits an "error" message containing a formatted error message.
-
-`void trace2_cmd_path(const char *pathname)`::
-
-	Emits a "cmd_path" message with the full pathname of the
-	current process.
+e.g: `void trace2_initialize_clock()`, `void trace2_initialize()`,
+`int trace2_is_enabled()`, `void trace2_cmd_start(int argc, const char **argv)`.
 
 === Command Detail Messages
 
 These are concerned with describing the specific Git command
 after the command line, config, and environment are inspected.
-
-`void trace2_cmd_name(const char *name)`::
-
-	Emits a "cmd_name" message with the canonical name of the
-	command, for example "status" or "checkout".
-
-`void trace2_cmd_mode(const char *mode)`::
-
-	Emits a "cmd_mode" message with a qualifier name to further
-	describe the current git command.
-+
-This message is intended to be used with git commands having multiple
-major modes.  For example, a "checkout" command can checkout a new
-branch or it can checkout a single file, so the checkout code could
-emit a cmd_mode message of "branch" or "file".
-
-`void trace2_cmd_alias(const char *alias, const char **argv_expansion)`::
-
-	Emits an "alias" message containing the alias used and the
-	argument expansion.
-
-`void trace2_def_param(const char *parameter, const char *value)`::
-
-	Emits a "def_param" message containing a key/value pair.
-+
-This message is intended to report some global aspect of the current
-command, such as a configuration setting or command line switch that
-significantly affects program performance or behavior, such as
-`core.abbrev`, `status.showUntrackedFiles`, or `--no-ahead-behind`.
-
-`void trace2_cmd_list_config()`::
-
-	Emits a "def_param" messages for "important" configuration
-	settings.
-+
-The environment variable `GIT_TRACE2_CONFIG_PARAMS` or the `trace2.configParams`
-config value can be set to a
-list of patterns of important configuration settings, for example:
-`core.*,remote.*.url`.  This function will iterate over all config
-settings and emit a "def_param" message for each match.
-
-`void trace2_cmd_set_config(const char *key, const char *value)`::
-
-	Emits a "def_param" message for a new or updated key/value
-	pair IF `key` is considered important.
-+
-This is used to hook into `git_config_set()` and catch any
-configuration changes and update a value previously reported by
-`trace2_cmd_list_config()`.
-
-`void trace2_def_repo(struct repository *repo)`::
-
-	Registers a repository with the Trace2 layer.  Assigns a
-	unique "repo-id" to `repo->trace2_repo_id`.
-+
-Emits a "worktree" messages containing the repo-id and the worktree
-pathname.
-+
-Region and data messages (described later) may refer to this repo-id.
-+
-The main/top-level repository will have repo-id value 1 (aka "r1").
-+
-The repo-id field is in anticipation of future in-proc submodule
-repositories.
+e.g: `void trace2_cmd_name(const char *name)`,
+`void trace2_cmd_mode(const char *mode)`.
 
 === Child Process Messages
 
 These are concerned with the various spawned child processes,
 including shell scripts, git commands, editors, pagers, and hooks.
 
-`void trace2_child_start(struct child_process *cmd)`::
-
-	Emits a "child_start" message containing the "child-id",
-	"child-argv", and "child-classification".
-+
-Before calling this, set `cmd->trace2_child_class` to a name
-describing the type of child process, for example "editor".
-+
-This function assigns a unique "child-id" to `cmd->trace2_child_id`.
-This field is used later during the "child_exit" message to associate
-it with the "child_start" message.
-+
-This function should be called before spawning the child process.
-
-`void trace2_child_exit(struct child_proess *cmd, int child_exit_code)`::
-
-	Emits a "child_exit" message containing the "child-id",
-	the child's elapsed time and exit-code.
-+
-The reported elapsed time includes the process creation overhead and
-time spend waiting for it to exit, so it may be slightly longer than
-the time reported by the child itself.
-+
-This function should be called after reaping the child process.
-
-`int trace2_exec(const char *exe, const char **argv)`::
-
-	Emits a "exec" message containing the "exec-id" and the
-	argv of the new process.
-+
-This function should be called before calling one of the `exec()`
-variants, such as `execvp()`.
-+
-This function returns a unique "exec-id".  This value is used later
-if the exec() fails and a "exec-result" message is necessary.
-
-`void trace2_exec_result(int exec_id, int error_code)`::
-
-	Emits a "exec_result" message containing the "exec-id"
-	and the error code.
-+
-On Unix-based systems, `exec()` does not return if successful.
-This message is used to indicate that the `exec()` failed and
-that the current program is continuing.
+e.g: `void trace2_child_start(struct child_process *cmd)`.
 
 === Git Thread Messages
 
 These messages are concerned with Git thread usage.
 
-`void trace2_thread_start(const char *thread_name)`::
-
-	Emits a "thread_start" message.
-+
-The `thread_name` field should be a descriptive name, such as the
-unique name of the thread-proc.  A unique "thread-id" will be added
-to the name to uniquely identify thread instances.
-+
-Region and data messages (described later) may refer to this thread
-name.
-+
-This function must be called by the thread-proc of the new thread
-(so that TLS data is properly initialized) and not by the caller
-of `pthread_create()`.
-
-`void trace2_thread_exit()`::
-
-	Emits a "thread_exit" message containing the thread name
-	and the thread elapsed time.
-+
-This function must be called by the thread-proc before it returns
-(so that the coorect TLS data is used and cleaned up.  It should
-not be called by the caller of `pthread_join()`.
+e.g: `void trace2_thread_start(const char *thread_name)`.
 
 === Region and Data Messages
 
 These are concerned with recording performance data
-over regions or spans of code.
-
-`void trace2_region_enter(const char *category, const char *label, const struct repository *repo)`::
-
-`void trace2_region_enter_printf(const char *category, const char *label, const struct repository *repo, const char *fmt, ...)`::
-
-`void trace2_region_enter_printf_va(const char *category, const char *label, const struct repository *repo, const char *fmt, va_list ap)`::
-
-	Emits a thread-relative "region_enter" message with optional
-	printf string.
-+
-This function pushes a new region nesting stack level on the current
-thread and starts a clock for the new stack frame.
-+
-The `category` field is an arbitrary category name used to classify
-regions by feature area, such as "status" or "index".  At this time
-it is only just printed along with the rest of the message.  It may
-be used in the future to filter messages.
-+
-The `label` field is an arbitrary label used to describe the activity
-being started, such as "read_recursive" or "do_read_index".
-+
-The `repo` field, if set, will be used to get the "repo-id", so that
-recursive oerations can be attributed to the correct repository.
-
-`void trace2_region_leave(const char *category, const char *label, const struct repository *repo)`::
-
-`void trace2_region_leave_printf(const char *category, const char *label, const struct repository *repo, const char *fmt, ...)`::
-
-`void trace2_region_leave_printf_va(const char *category, const char *label, const struct repository *repo, const char *fmt, va_list ap)`::
-
-	Emits a thread-relative "region_leave" message with optional
-	printf string.
-+
-This function pops the region nesting stack on the current thread
-and reports the elapsed time of the stack frame.
-+
-The `category`, `label`, and `repo` fields are the same as above.
-The `category` and `label` do not need to match the correpsonding
-"region_enter" message, but it makes the data stream easier to
-understand.
-
-`void trace2_data_string(const char *category, const struct repository *repo, const char *key, const char * value)`::
-
-`void trace2_data_intmax(const char *category, const struct repository *repo, const char *key, intmax value)`::
-
-`void trace2_data_json(const char *category, const struct repository *repo, const char *key, const struct json_writer *jw)`::
-
-	Emits a region- and thread-relative "data" or "data_json" message.
-+
-This is a key/value pair message containing information about the
-current thread, region stack, and repository.  This could be used
-to print the number of files in a directory during a multi-threaded
-recursive tree walk.
-
-`void trace2_printf(const char *fmt, ...)`::
-
-`void trace2_printf_va(const char *fmt, va_list ap)`::
+over regions or spans of code. e.g:
+`void trace2_region_enter(const char *category, const char *label, const struct repository *repo)`.
 
-	Emits a region- and thread-relative "printf" message.
+Refer to trace2.h for details about all trace2 functions.
