address review: remove events API, fix get_finished_logs xref, move changelog

- Remove docs/api/_events.rst and docs/sdk/_events.rst (events API is
  deprecated per MikeGoldsmith, avoid exposing it in docs).
- Remove _events entries from api/index.rst and sdk/index.rst toctrees.
- Drop Event class nitpick_ignore entry (no longer needed).
- Fix docstring cross-reference on InMemoryLogRecordExporter from :func:
  to :meth: since get_finished_logs is a method, and drop its
  nitpick_ignore entry.
- Move changelog entry from 1.41.0/0.62b0 to Unreleased.
