[ADD] runtime/utils: optional validation to EventBus

Currently the event bus allows sending and listening to arbitrary
events, I got got by that when I pushed a fix using `addEventListener`
on a bus across an events renaming, and on the other side the fix did
nothing anymore. Entirely my fault, but if the list of events sent on
a bus is known and documented (e.g. a jsdoc has `@emits` tags) it
would make sense for both the listening and the dispatching to also be
validated.

This proposal performs validation only when the eventbus is created:

- in dev mode (which also requires being in a component context)
- if an iterable of events is passed to the ctor

The dev-mode check might be overkill but it seems like a good idea at
least for an initial version, as the validation does have a cost
however low, and validation errors can occur essentially anywhere.
