   This struct defines the header of an LV2 event. An LV2 event is a single
   chunk of POD (plain old data), usually contained in a flat buffer (see
   LV2_EventBuffer below). Unless a required feature says otherwise, hosts may
   assume a deep copy of an LV2 event can be created safely using a simple:

   memcpy(ev_copy, ev, sizeof(LV2_Event) + ev->size);  (or equivalent)
