Tweak PDU diagram demonstrating `prev_events`. (#3340)

This tweaks the DAG to be simpler, with two linear event chains E4 -> E3
-> E2 -> E1 and E6 -> E5 -> E2 -> E1. The extremities of the DAG are now
the first and only point in the DAG where multiple event parents occur.
Since the point of the diagram is to demonstrate this very situation,
it's better didactically if there is only one such situation in the
diagram.

For example, consider a room whose events form the DAG shown below. A
server creating a new event in this room should populate the new event's
`prev_events` field with `E4` and `E5`, since neither event yet has a
