Don't supervise the tracer process

If we do then we end up killing the tracer after the stream
terminates and this is not what we want. This prevents us from
getting useful information from requests that are still ongoing
(when they run concurrently) and completely prevents us from
tracing Websocket handlers.

I'm not the biggest fan of having unsupervised modules but if
this is properly documented there should be no problem.
