well not intended to be an improvement, intended to align the msvc build
with the gcc/clang builds placement of registered tracepoint in their
own section.
the alternate expansion for msvc is provided to place the trace point
being registered in it's own section `__rte_trace_point'
msvc doesn't have __attribute__(section("name")) instead as an alternate
we use msvc's data_seg pragma to create and place the trace point into
a named section.
i.e.
gcc/clang
T __attribute__(section("__rte_trace_point") __##trace;
msvc
T __pragma(data_seg("__rte_trace_point")) __declspec(allocate("__rte_trace_point")) __##trace;
