To cut down on complexity, we don't require specifying any expiry versions. Given that these events will be recorded non-persistently from off-train add-ons, they can be expired by shipping new add-on releases. We also start to use the new "record on release" terminology here instead of opt-in/opt-out, but are not changing the internal functionality yet. Technically, this is implemented by keeping a separate registry for the dynamic event information. Built-in & dynamic events are tracked with separate numeric ids, so introduce a common identifier for both, an EventKey. For actual event storage, the events are treated the same as built-in events. They are simply bucketed into the 'dynamic' process storage. This approach ends up duplicating code paths that use the event info, but keeps a single implementation for recording, storage & serialization.

This is not a real process, it is used to logically group add-on probes.
|
|
It contains data of any probes registered at runtime by add-ons.
