Tag broadcasted events with UUID and hop

When API have mutual dependencies, leading to
loops in dependecies, broadcasting an event
never ends because of the loop (see SPEC-2625).

To avoid that weird flood of events, a unic
identifier (UUID) is attached to broadcasted
event and a tiny memory records previously
broadcasted events to avoid re-sending an
already sent event.

The size of the memory can be set using the
macro variable EVENT_BROADCAST_MEMORY_COUNT
whose default value is 8. It can be reduced
to 0.

An other mecanism is added to limit the count
of hops that a broadcasted event can do. That
count can be set using the macro variable
EVENT_BROADCAST_HOP_MAX whose default value
is 10.
