Improve trace_event documentation #16315

@AndreasMadsen

Description

@AndreasMadsen
  • Version: master
  • Platform: all
  • Subsystem: trace_events, docs

The trace_events documentation is rather short and titled wrong.

We should:

  • change title from tracing to trace_event
  • describe what each category contains:
    • v8 events are GC, compiling, and execution related
    • node is a placeholder. Doesn't actually contain anything
    • node.async_hooks events have an id and a special triggerId property.
  • link to the output format specifications
