Eliza Weisman f5aac47f68 attributes: refactor into separate modules (#1643)
## Motivation

Currently, `tracing-attributes` consists of one very large `lib.rs`
module that's 1358 lines long. In my opinion, this makes the code
somewhat hard to navigate.

## Solution

This branch refactors `tracing-attributes` so that most of the code is
split into two separate modules: `attrs.rs`, which contains the types
representing the attribute arguments and the code for parsing them, and
`expand.rs`, which contains the code for actually expanding an
`#[instrument]` macro to generate the instrumented code. For the most
part, this was a pretty clean split.

I also did a small change to the way `async-trait` support is
implemented; moving the two steps for generating instrumented code for
`async-trait` to two methods on the `AsyncTraitInfo` struct; one for
determining if the instrumented function is also an `async-trait` method
and finding the necessary information to instrument it, and one for
generating the instrumented code. This feels a bit neater than doing all
of that in the `gen_function` function.

There shouldn't be any functional changes or significant
implementatation changes (besides the `async-trait` change) in this
branch; just moving code around.

Tracing — Structured, application-level diagnostics

tracing-attributes

Macro attributes for application-level tracing.

Overview

tracing is a framework for instrumenting Rust programs to collect structured, event-based diagnostic information. This crate provides the #[instrument] attribute for automatically instrumenting functions using tracing.

Note that this macro is also re-exported by the main tracing crate.

Compiler support: requires rustc 1.42+

Usage

First, add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
tracing-attributes = "0.1.18"

This crate provides the #[instrument] attribute for instrumenting a function with a tracing span. For example:

use tracing_attributes::instrument;

#[instrument]
pub fn my_function(my_arg: usize) {
    // ...
}

Supported Rust Versions

Tracing is built against the latest stable release. The minimum supported version is 1.42. The current Tracing version is not guaranteed to build on Rust versions earlier than the minimum supported version.

Tracing follows the same compiler support policies as the rest of the Tokio project. The current stable Rust compiler and the three most recent minor versions before it will always be supported. For example, if the current stable compiler version is 1.45, the minimum supported version will not be increased past 1.42, three minor versions prior. Increasing the minimum supported compiler version is not considered a semver breaking change as long as doing so complies with this policy.
