renaming meta function to circumvent precompilation fails in julia nightly and release candidates.

[arhik]

Tracy fails with following error during precompilation in julia nightly versions after JuliaLang/julia#59321 (Last know julia nightly commit that works). GPUCompiler.jl and CUDA.jl are failing with Tracy.jl as a result.

ERROR: The following 1 direct dependency failed to precompile:

Signature change kind of circumvents it and Julia nightly, release and +rc candidates are working with this change. Not sure if this is forward compatible way to fix it. I am coming back to Julia after long break; this needs experts view.

I think this is related to JuliaLang/julia#59385. Another way would be to rename the meta function a bit.
