They are named structures so declared outside the scope of the event.
But they are sent only if one event needs them.

Sending each structure (and enum) once would be enough, we could keep a
hash table of global types that were sent, like we do before dumping the
metadata of those global types, and that would avoid sending them many
times. But it is not what is being done right now. We just send all the
global types, but they are added to the metadata only once.
