The longer a trace is played for, the more chance there is for bugs
to cause it to go out of synch with the initial recording. Stepping
backward from the end of a trace can be a good way to find problems.

This extends the runtime of the record phase to 1 second, to build a
bigger trace, and it adds a replay test that runs to the end of the
trace, steps back then forward and verifies the pc.
