This file is now made of two columns, removing the column listing the
user-visible strings used in the system views and the documentation:
- Enum definitions for each class without the prefix "WAIT_EVENT_", so
as this information can be grepped in the code and wait_event_names.txt
at the same time.
- Description in the documentation.
The wait event names are now generated from the enum objects in
CamelCase, with the underscores removed. The data generated for wait
events is consistent with what was produced by 414f6c0fb7.
This has the advantage to remove WAIT_EVENT_DOCONLY, which was a
placeholder for the wait event types Lock and LWLock as these two only
require the generation of the documentation.

# Generating dummy probes If Postgres isn't configured with dtrace enabled, we need to generate dummy probes for the entries in probes.d, that do nothing. This is accomplished in Unix via the sed script `Gen_dummy_probes.sed`. We used to use this in MSVC builds using the perl utility `psed`, which mimicked sed. However, that utility disappeared from Windows perl distributions and so we converted the sed script to a perl script to be used in MSVC builds. We still keep the sed script as the authoritative source for generating these dummy probes because except on Windows perl is not a hard requirement when building from a tarball. So, if you need to change the way dummy probes are generated, first change the sed script, and when it's working generate the perl script. This can be accomplished by using the perl utility s2p. s2p is no longer part of the perl core, so it might not be on your system, but it is available on CPAN and also in many package systems. e.g. on Fedora it can be installed using `cpan App::s2p` or `dnf install perl-App-s2p`. The Makefile contains a recipe for regenerating Gen_dummy_probes.pl, so all you need to do is once you have s2p installed is `make Gen_dummy_probes.pl` Note that in a VPATH build this will generate the file in the vpath tree, not the source tree.
