We can already enable and disable SAM events via one of two ways: either via a (non-observer) notifier tied to a specific event group, or a generic event enable/disable request. In some instances, however, neither method may be desirable. The first method will tie the event enable request to a specific notifier, however, when we want to receive notifications for multiple event groups of the same target category and forward this to the same notifier callback, we may receive duplicate events, i.e. one event per registered notifier. The second method will bypass the internal reference counting mechanism, meaning that a disable request will disable the event regardless of any other client driver using it, which may break the functionality of that driver. To address this problem, add new functions that allow enabling and disabling of events via the event reference counting mechanism built into the controller, without needing to register a notifier. This can then be used in combination with observer notifiers to process multiple events of the same target category without duplication in the same callback function.
