Support for events API

Development parked because there's no satisfactory way to expose this info in OpenHAB.

However, it would be very helpful to have an overview of the event messages. It would be great to read out the events and perhaps display them as a table, or even as a log entry, it would already help.

Do you have any suggestions as to the format in which they should be exposed?

The API provides an array of messages, which contain structured information (attributes such as whether the event is active).

OpenHAB doesn't afaik have any native way to represent tabular info, or log-based structures. I thought about exposing them as raw JSON but not sure if that's really helpful.

What would be your OpenHAB UI component of choice
