Bug: GenericSkeleton::GetEvents() retuns a const EventMap but Allocate()/Send() need mutability

[NEOatNHNG]

Description

The GenericSkeleton::GetEvents() returns a const EventMap which means all the elements are also const. But in order to Allocate() or Send() an event, the user needs a mutable GenericEvent which means we have to resort to ugly things like const_cast.

One alternative instead of making the whole map mutable would be to wrap the events in a Mutable wrapper class or make methods like Allocate() and Send() const.
