Thank you for posting in Intel community forum and hope this message find you well.
Apologies for the inconvenient cause, there might be some confusion on the document and some older version of document are still available to support older version tools.
For the mention section that you are referring to, please refer to updated document embedded design handbook here.
Please do let us know if that helps clarify your doubts.

In addition, the program counter trace collection tool is available for some Nios II processors. However, the tutorials do not use this tool.
And page 203 states:
The Nios II processor can generate complete and accurate program counter trace information. However, the GNU profiler does not use this information. To generate this information, you must have a Nios II processor configured with a JTAG debug module of level 3 or greater. The level 3 JTAG debug module creates on-chip trace data. You can capture approximately a dozen instructions in the on-chip trace buffer.
I already have the Nios II configured with an on-chip trace buffer and the I have the JTAG debug level set correctly. What I would like to know is how do I view the captured instructions?
