Truffle/Instrumentation: - Merge instrumentation support into the general execution context; remove separate Instrumentation interface and implementation - Generalize the ?tagging? mechanism for extensibility: the enum PhylumTag is now an interface, and the standard tags moved to the new enum StandardTag - A new ?trap? mechanism interrupts program execution at any probed node holding a specified PhylumTag; this replaces some other special-purpose code. - Refine several interface by factoring out callback methods and simplifying collaboration among key implementation classes.

/**
 * A receiver of Truffle AST {@link ExecutionEvents}, propagated from a {@link Probe} to which the
 * instrument is attached, for the benefit of associated <em>tools</em>.
 * <p>
 * Guidelines for implementing Instruments, with particular attention to avoiding undesired runtime
 * performance overhead:
 * <ol>
 * <li>Extend {@link Instrument} and override only the event handling methods for which some action
 * is needed.</li>
 * <li>Instruments are Truffle {@link Node}s and should be coded as much as possible in the desired
 * <em>Truffle style</em>, documented more thoroughly elsewhere.</li>
 * <li>Maintain as little state as possible.</li>
 * <li>If state is necessary, make it {@code final} if possible.</li>
 * <li>If non-final state is necessary, annotate it as {@link CompilationFinal} and call
 * {@linkplain InstrumentationNode#notifyProbeChanged(Instrument)} whenever it is modified.</li>
 * <li>Never store a {@link Frame} value in a field.</li>
 * <li>Minimize computation in standard execution paths.</li>
 * <li>Callbacks to tools should be made via callbacks provided at construction and stored in
 * {@code final} fields.</li>
 * <li>Tool callback methods should usually be annotated as {@link SlowPath} to prevent them from
 * being inlined into fast execution paths.</li>
 * <li>If computation is needed, and if performance is important, then the computation is best
 * expressed as a guest language AST and evaluated using standard Truffle mechanisms so that
 * standard Truffle optimizations can be applied.</li>
 * </ol>
 * <p>
 * Guidelines for attachment to a {@link Probe}:
 * <ol>
 * <li>An Instrument instance must only attached to a single {@link Probe}, each of which is
 * associated uniquely with a specific syntactic unit of a guest language program, and thus
 * (initially) to a specific {@linkplain Node Truffle AST node}.</li>
 * <li>When the AST containing such a node is copied at runtime, the {@link Probe} will be shared by
 * every copy, and so the Instrument will receive events corresponding to the intended syntactic
 * unit of code, independent of which AST copy is being executed.</li>
 * </ol>
 *
 * <p>
 * <strong>Disclaimer:</strong> experimental; under development.
