Please list the APIs.

Should probably state that the string returned belongs to the synth
descriptor.

Here too. And typo in all the comments. "success"

Same here.

I just realized that on error, we do not free the synthetic event
descriptor. So there is a memory leak.

Also, I'm thinking that the specific functions for destroying the synthetic
events and such, should live here, and trace-dynevents.c should call them.

Because all the management for synthetic events should live in this file
(or go to its own file).
