The grammar for the events dm_device_remove, device_resume and
dm_table_clear did not include the no_data entry when device data
and hash are missing.
For the device uuid or name "=" is also escaped with a "\".
Add a note that dm_table_load might split its target measurements over
multiple IMA events.

v2:
- include also device name and uuid in grammar for no_data
- fixed spelling mistakes
