Could haxm adopt TraceEvents interface for hax_log? #336

Now hax_log use vDbgPrintExWithPrefix to output log info, which needs to be captured with third-party tool. Is it possible to adopt TraceEvents interface to write hax log info into Windows eventvwr?

Thanks for your suggestion. Currently HAXM is based on WDM (Windows Driver Model) framework. Does TraceEvents need the support of the drivers based on the KMDF (Kernel-Mode Driver Framework)? As I know, TraceEvents is more suitable for printing a few key events into Windows Event Viewer. Moreover, currently hax_log() is mainly for debugging purpose, and then quantities of logs may be output at different levels.
