pps: events reporting fix up

PPS events must be recorded according to PPS's mode settings.

If a process asks for (i.e.) capture-assert events only, when the PPS
client calls the pps_event() function to save the current PPS event, we
should verify the event type and then discard unwanted ones.

Also, without this patch userland processes waiting for a specific PPS
event (assert or clear but not both) may be awakened at wrong time.
