[lttng-dev] [RFC PATCH lttng-tools 13/18] Add serialized versions of lttng_event structs

[ylamarre@efficios.com (Yannick Lamarre)]

Serialized versions of lttng_event, lttng_event_function_attr and
lttng_event_probe_attr are packed structures to be used in communication
protocols for consistent sizes across platforms. The serialized versions are
stripped of pointers and padding.

Pointers are removed since their size can vary on platforms supporting
variable sized registers (x86-64).
Padding is also removed since it defeats the purpose of a packed struct.
