#5401: tag control log events so arm can know they're from the same place in the
code

Damian told me at the dev mtg that arm is doing regexp backbends to
recognize log line duplicates (it will merge all the logs that are
basically saying the same thing into one, to make it easier to see what
else is going on). If we provide a tag along with the log event, we would
make his life easier.
It occurred to me that we could easily add a new "filename:line" param to
controller events, since we already know it. (The tag doesn't have to be
consistent across runs, just within a run.) We would probably want to
declare the tag string opaque, so controllers don't get any ideas about
doing more with it.
