[trace-events] Tracing Controller should keep list of possible categories #191
Description
Context: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/20608/files#r186918294
It would be good for the Tracing Controller to keep a list of categories available for use in the process.

I'm not sure how that can be done since we are going to allow users to have their own categories. We could properly maintain a dynamic set object but a static list definitely isn't possible.

For now at least, the API won't be exposed to end users but this still presents a challenge long term.
We could provide an API via the trace_events module to register categories for that list.

I was thinking dynamic list. As a starting point, it can be the list of categories encountered so far in the process, but going forward, we could formalize a register categories concept as @jasnell mentions.

BTW, the former works fairly well for Chrome at the moment:
