I'm moving it to the beginning, and will likely even add it to the v2.9 stable branch. -- Steve

When reading the trace-id option from trace.dat file, check if the size is at least 8 bytes. If the size is greater, use the first 8 bytes only and ignore the rest. That way we can safely extend this option in the future, without breaking the legacy logic.
