+### Added

+- Added a new emitter mode `logWithCallTraceEmitter` which uses trace messages generated by `PlutusTx.Plugin:profile-all` flag of plutus-tx-plugin to create call trace of the functions that led to the evaluation failure. If script passes or script is not compiled with `profile-all` flag, `logWithCallTraceEmitter` will behave as regular `logEmitter`.

+{-| Emits log and, when script evaluation fails, call trace.
+
+This requires script to be compiled with `PlutusTx.Plugin:profile-all` turned on because this relies
+on compiler-generated trace calls that notifies entrance and exit of a function call. These traces
+that mark entrance and exit are ordinary traces like "-> rob:Example.hs:3:1-3:15" and "<-
+bob:Example.hs:1:1-1:13" with "->" and "<-" prefixies, where "bob" and "rob" is the name
+of the function with source span. If regular script with no entrance/exit marker is given, this
+emitter will behave identically to 'logEmitter'.
+
+When script evaluation fails, this emitter will give call trace of the functions that led to the
+evaluation failure.  This is useful for pin-pointing specific area of the codebase that caused
+failure when debugging a script. When script evaluation passes, every trace message generated by
+`profile-all` flag will be removed, and this emitter will behave identically to 'logEmitter'.
