/**
 * Provides interfaces to trace a task for performance measure, the logs can be capture by the

 *
 * <p>This interfaces trace the start, end, and value changes of key processes that last for at least 3 ms.
 *
 * <p>Example:
 * To trace a name verification that is expected to complete within 5 ms:
 * <pre>{@code
 * bytrace.startTrace("checkName", 111, 5);
 * //your process
 * bytrace.finishTrace("checkName", 111);
 * }</pre>
 * To trace the number of layers, which is 3:
 * <pre>{@code
 * bytrace.traceByValue("curLayer", 3);
 * }</pre>
 *
 * <p>Each {@code startTrace} matches one {@code finishTrace}, and they must have the same name
 * and taskId.
