discover/event: Ensure event struct exists for async callersv1.2.4
When handling an event, user_event_handle_message() creates an event struct with relevant parameters. Once user_event_handle_message() is finished it frees the struct. However in the case of a dhcp or add_url event, asynchronous jobs may be spawned that will later reference the event struct. In particular this becomes a problem when pxe_process_pair() handles an IPAPPEND name/value pair and tries to access event->device. In the case of dhcp and add_url events, we avoid this by changing the event struct's talloc parent to the discover_context struct which persists until all async pxe jobs have completed.
