Having 'arg' as a filename is a bit odd; using op/arg is very generic
for adding extra commands; but it suddenly becomes less generic if
arg is always a filename.

I think this SRST chunk is the one that needs updating for recorder.
(The diff has made a bit of a mess, but I think you've copy pasted the
trace-file chunk, but forgotten to update the SRST section).

Consider whether just doing two separate commands would be easier;
a recorder-trace and recorder-dump for example; that's fine from a HMP
point of view and I think you'll find it's less code.
