Summary: clean up trace.py

Initial Comment:
moderately interesting changes:
 * bugfix: remove "feature" of ignoring files in the
tmpdir, as I was trying to run it on file in the tmpdir
and couldn't figure out why it gave no answer!  I think
the original motivation for that feature (spurious
"/tmp/" filenames for builtin functions??) has gone
away, but I'm not sure.
 * add more usage docs and warning about common mistake

pretty mundane changes:
 * remove unnecessary checks for backwards
compatibility with a version that never escaped from my
(Zooko's) laptop
 * add a future-compatible check: if the interpreter
offers an attribute called `sys.optimized', and it is
"true", and the user is trying to do something that
can't be done with an optimizing interpreter, then
error out

I haven't looked at the patch, but:

This probably isn't true any more.  I hacked trace.py to use
co_lnotab when I removed SET_LINENO.

I want to shout "YAGNI!" for some reason...

Here are the changes in 20995:
 * bugfix: remove "feature" of ignoring files in the
tmpdir, as I was trying to run it on a file in the tmpdir
and couldn't figure out why it gave no answer! I think
the original motivation for that feature (spurious
"/tmp/" filenames for builtin functions??) has gone
away, but I'm not sure. 
 * add feature "--listfuncs" which prints out whether each
func was invoked or not, rather than how many times each
func was invoked
 * remove unnecessary checks for backwards
compatibility with a version that never escaped from my
(Zooko's) laptop
 * add doc about usage and about how it will silently fail
if invoked with -O
 * add a future-compatible check: if the interpreter
offers an attribute called `sys.optimized', and it is
"true", and the user is trying to do something that
can't be done with an optimizing interpreter, then
error out 
 * add some commented-out debug print statements

I have now applied file 25252 as trace.py 1.10.

Skip, what is your opinion on file 20995? It applies cleanly
and looks reasonable (even though I haven't tried to
understand it all).

Skip, what kind of processing do you plan for this patch?

This patch removes the change log, as per GvR's request.

I'll remove the change log and submit a patch momentarily. 
I'm afraid I cannot legally remove the copyright notice (or
more precisely: my removing the copyright notice from the
text would have no legal effect, and you can do it as well
as I can), since I am not Autonomous Zones Industries, Inc.

(AZI was my employer at the time I wrote and submitted that
patch.)

Regards,

Zooko

Can you also provide the other cleanup that Guido requested
(change of license, removal of change logs, etc)?
