To differentiate between static and dynamic events, add a new flag DYNAMIC to the event flags that all dynamic events have set. This will allow to differentiate when attaching to a dynamic event from a static event. Static events have a mod pointer that references the module they were created in (or NULL for core kernel). This can be incremented when the event has something attached to it. But there exists no such mechanism for dynamic events. This is dangerous as the dynamic events may now disappear without the "attachment" knowing that it no longer exists. To enforce the dynamic flag, change dyn_event_add() to pass the event that is being created such that it can set the DYNAMIC flag of the event. This helps make sure that no location that creates a dynamic event misses setting this flag.
