Fix: liblttng-ctl comm: lttng_event_context is not packed

Observed issue
==============

The size of the struct differs between bitness for x86-64 and x86
leading to serialization/deserialization problem across client
(liblttng-ctl) and lttng-sessiond.

sizeof(struct lttng_event_context):

  x86: 308
  x86-64: 312

The struct cannot be marked as LTTNG_PACKED since it is part of the API.

Solution
========

Adopt a similar pattern to the new API with a "serialize" &
"create_from_buffer" approach.

Most of the complexity is moved to `src/common/event.c`

Known drawbacks
=========

None.
