OMPROUTE auto tracing

Troubleshooting a typical OMPROUTE problem (e.g. OSPF adjacency failure) usually requires an OMPROUTE -t2 -d1 trace that captures the events leading to the problem. Currently, OMPROUTE tracing is not active until it is manually enabled. As such, it is usually too late to capture the trace by the time the problem is noticed. Normally, the customer would need to enable the trace then wait for the next occurrence or recreate the problem in order to identify the source of the problem. This costs more time and frustrations from a customer's perspective. Therefore, it would be helpful to automatically write OMPROUTE -t2 -d1 trace to a buffer of a certain size. Then when the problem occurs, the customer can just dump the buffer to help with the analysis.
