Registers *trace_callback* to be called for each SQL statement that is
actually executed by the SQLite backend.
- The only argument passed to the callback is the statement (as string) that
- is being executed. The return value of the callback is ignored. Note that
- the backend does not only run statements passed to the :meth:`Cursor.execute`
- methods. Other sources include the transaction management of the Python
- module and the execution of triggers defined in the current database.

Passing :const:`None` as *trace_callback* will disable the trace callback.

+ tracebacks from exceptions raised in the trace callback.
