Summary:                    Responses to Manager Commands Should Be Called
'Responses' and not 'Events'
Description: 
In developing a new Ruby library for AMI, it became clear that separating
AMI Event handling from AMI Actions by using two sockets was a good idea. 
With this in place, it also became evident that there are several Manager
Actions which generate blocks called "Events", but which are not in fact
sent to Event subscribers.

This is because these "Event" responses are not in fact true Events
(utilizing the Eventing calls) but are really a string of Responses sent to
whatever user generated the matching "Action".

For this reason I propose changing these incorrectly-labeled "Event:"
blocks to "Response:" blocks.  This change also makes sense since objects
like SipPeers are ostensibly not "Events" and are not being sent as a
result of anything "happening" in the system.

Actions affected include: ZapShowChannels, SipShowPeers, Agents,
VoicemailUsers, Queues, QueueStatus, WaitEvent, Status, DBGet,
ListDialplan, ParkedCalls
