res_corosync: Update module to work with Stasis (and compile)

This patch fixes res_corosync such that it works with Asterisk 12. This
restores the functionality that was present in previous versions of
Asterisk, and ensures compatibility with those versions by restoring the
binary message format needed to pass information from/to them.

The following changes were made in the core to support this:
 * The event system has been partially restored. All event definition and
   event types in this patch were pulled from Asterisk 11. Previously, we had
   hoped that this information would live in res_corosync; however, the
   approach in this patch seems to be better for a few reasons:
   (1) Theoretically, ast_events can be used by any module as a binary
       representation of a Stasis message. Given the structure of an ast_event
       object, that information has to live in the core to be used universally.
       For example, defining the payload of a device state ast_event in
       res_corosync could result in an incompatible device state representation
       in another module.
   (2) Much of this representation already lived in the core, and was not
       easily extensible.
   (3) The code already existed. :-)
 * Stasis message types now have a message formatter that converts their
   payload to an ast_event object.
 * Stasis message forwarders now handle forwarding to themselves. Previously
   this would result in an infinite recursive call. Now, this simply creates a
   new forwarding object with no forwards set up (as it is the thing it is
   forwarding to). This is advantageous for res_corosync, as returning NULL
   would also imply an unrecoverable error. Returning a subscription in this
   case allows for easier handling of message types that are published directly
   to an aggregate topic that has forwarders.
