These are listed in pub-policy/bro.init (I know, not at all intuitive).
The next release will have a poiner to that file, and it will be thoroughly
commented to explain each event.

Defined in the same place.  bro.init lists the type signatures of each
event, i.e. the function parameter names and types.

Just those in pub-policy.

They're not; and in any case, I encourage questions, please ask as they arise.
