+ * Default memory trace callback. DO NOT CALL DIRECTLY. It is meant to be used

+ *
+ * The default callback outputs trace data using 'printf', in a format that's
+ * easily parsable by an external tool. For each memory operation, the callback
+ * outputs a line that begins with '#<op>:<0xresult>;<0xcaller>-':
+ *
+ * - 'op' identifies the memory operation ('m' for 'malloc', 'r' for 'realloc',
+ *   'c' for 'calloc' and 'f' for 'free').
+ * - 'result' (base 16) is the result of the memor operation. This is always NULL
+ *   for 'free', since 'free' doesn't return anything.
+ * -'caller' (base 16) is the caller of the memory operation. Note that the value
+ *   of 'caller' might be unreliable.
+ *
+ * The rest of the output depends on the operation being traced:
+ *
+ * - for 'malloc': 'size', where 'size' is the original argument to 'malloc'.
+ * - for 'realloc': '0xptr;size', where 'ptr' (base 16) and 'size' are the original arguments to 'realloc'.
+ * - for 'calloc': 'nmemb;size', where 'nmemb' and 'size' are the original arguments to 'calloc'.
+ * - for 'free': '0xptr', where 'ptr' (base 16) is the original argument to 'free'.
+ *
+ * Examples:
+ *
+ * - '#m:0x20003240;0x600d-50' encodes a 'malloc' that returned 0x20003240, was called
+ *   by the instruction at 0x600D with a the 'size' argument equal to 50.
+ * - '#f:0x0;0x602f-0x20003240' encodes a 'free' that was called by the instruction at
+ *   0x602f with the 'ptr' argument equal to 0x20003240.
