Indeed - we don't want to indicate an overflow on a disabled counter.

Does this mean that we don't care if the low counter is enabled or not
when deciding if the pair is chained?
I would find the code easier to follow if we had an explicit 'is the
high counter enabled here' check (at the point of deciding where to
put the overflow).

I.e. here we don't care what the state of enablement is for the low counter.
Also at present, this may break the following use-case
- User creates and uses a pair of chained counters
- User disables odd/high counter
- User reads values of both counters
- User rewrites CHAIN event to odd/high counter OR user re-enables just the even/low counter
- User reads value of both counters <- this may now different to the last read
