die() messages are traced in trace2, but BUG() messages are not. Anyone
tracking die() messages would have even more reason to track BUG().
Therefore, write to trace2 when BUG() is invoked.

For an environment variable that is supposed to be set by users, the
GIT_TR2* env vars are just too unclear, inconsistent, and ugly.
Most of the established GIT_* environment variables don't use
abbreviations, and in case of the few that do (GIT_DIR,
GIT_COMMON_DIR, GIT_DIFF_OPTS) it's quite obvious what the
abbreviations (DIR and OPTS) stand for. But what does TR stand for?
Track, traditional, trailer, transaction, transfer, transformation,
transition, translation, transplant, transport, traversal, tree,
trigger, truncate, trust, or ...?!
The trace2 facility, as the '2' suffix in its name suggests, is
supposed to eventually supercede Git's original trace facility. It's
reasonable to expect that the corresponding environment variables
follow suit, and after the original GIT_TRACE variables they are
called GIT_TRACE2; there is no such thing is 'GIT_TR'.
All trace2-specific config variables are, very sensibly, in the
'trace2' section, not in 'tr2'.
OTOH, we don't gain anything at all by omitting the last three
characters of "trace" from the names of these environment variables.
So let's rename all GIT_TR2* environment variables to GIT_TRACE2*,
before they make their way into a stable release.

Polishing of the new trace2 facility continues. The system-level
configuration can specify site-wide trace2 settings, which can be
overridden with per-user configuration and environment variables.
* jh/trace2-sid-fix:
trace2: fixup access problem on /etc/gitconfig in read_very_early_config
trace2: update docs to describe system/global config settings
trace2: make SIDs more unique
trace2: clarify UTC datetime formatting
trace2: report peak memory usage of the process
trace2: use system/global config for default trace2 settings
config: add read_very_early_config()
trace2: find exec-dir before trace2 initialization
trace2: add absolute elapsed time to start event
trace2: refactor setting process starting time
config: initialize opts structure in repo_read_config()
Teach git to read the system and global config files for
default Trace2 settings. This allows system-wide Trace2 settings to
be installed and inherited to make it easier to manage a collection of
systems.
The original GIT_TR2* environment variables are loaded afterwards and
can be used to override the system settings.
Only the system and global config files are used. Repo and worktree
local config files are ignored. Likewise, the "-c" command line
arguments are also ignored. These limits are for performance reasons.
(1) For users not using Trace2, there should be minimal overhead to
detect that Trace2 is not enabled. In particular, Trace2 should not
allocate lots of otherwise unused data strucutres.
(2) For accurate performance measurements, Trace2 should be initialized
as early in the git process as possible, and before most of the normal
git process initialization (which involves discovering the .git directory
and reading a hierarchy of config files).

When the value of a trace2 environment variable is an absolute path
referring to an existing directory, write output to files (one per
process) underneath the given directory. Files will be named according
to the final component of the trace2 SID, followed by a counter to avoid
potential collisions.
This makes it more convenient to collect traces for every git invocation
by unconditionally setting the relevant trace2 envvar to a constant
directory name.
