Support events outside of contracts

[cburgdorf]

What is wrong?

Currently, events are only allowed inside contracts like so:

contract GuestBook:
    
    event Signed:
        idx book_msg: u256

    pub whatever:
        ...

They should be supported outside of the contract, too like so:

event Signed:
    idx book_msg: u256

contract GuestBook:
    
    pub whatever:
        ...

How can it be fixed

Is the idea here that this allows two different contracts to share the same event definitions?

Yep, exactly.
