c6edcf1c710e4aaf1cafdbf8e86fe209b57bdeb8 build: suppress libevent warnings if supressing external warnings (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  Enable `-Wdocumentation` by taking advantage of our `--enable-suppress-external-warnings` flag. Most of the CIs are using this flag now, so any regressions should be caught.

  This also required modifying libevents flags when suppressing warnings, as depending on the version being built against, that could generate a large number of warnings. i.e:
  ```bash

  Note that a lot of these have already been fixed upstream.
