| But nothing is "forced" here. It is really a re-scheduling of an event.

I think that it is forced: discard the next event; do this event; do
it now. Not much of a window for the system to have second thoughts.
The name event_replace does not suggest that the event is to be
scheduled for now. I guess event_force only weakly suggests it.
My original name had "now" in it, but that got confusing with
struct now_event logic.
