Motivation

Currently we have one tracing entrypoint in linera-base to be split between our various tracing implementations. This entrypoint has a different implementation for each of our three supported platforms (unix, web, and Linera), which makes the conditional compilation quite complicated.

Proposal

Instead, move the two present implementations onto target-specific codepaths (native to linera-service, which currently functions as a catch-all crate for all our Linera UNIX binaries, and Web to linera-web).

linera-summary now doesn't use this, but doesn't really need to (it's a CI tool). It would be nice in the future to split out CLI utilities like input/output formats from linera-service into a crate that can be reüsed, and split linera-service into different crates that depend on that.

Test Plan

CI. The existing test has been ported to the new structure.
