Optimise EventReader::clear() and improve documentation (#7471)

# Objective

Clearing the reader doesn't require iterating the events. Updating the `last_event_count` of the reader is enough.

I rewrote part of the documentation as some of it was incorrect or harder to understand than necessary.

## Changelog

Added `ManualEventReader::clear()`
