event: Change EVENT_SPY to global
This creates static records at present, but it causes a problem with clang
and LTO: the linker list records are sometimes dropped from the image.
Fix this by making the records global.
Update to use __used while we are here.

* The only solution I can think of is to mark linker-list entries as 'used'
* using an attribute. This should be safe, since we don't actually want to drop
* any of these. However this does slightly limit LTO's optimisation choices.
+ *
+ * Another issue has come up, only with clang: using 'static' makes it throw
+ * away the linker-list entry sometimes, e.g. with the EVT_FT_FIXUP entry in
+ * vbe_simple.c - so for now, make it global.
