Closes: #181

Use the v0.34 definition of abci.Event which does not enforce valid UTF-8 data for its key and value attributes, specifying them as bytes instead of string. This is required, because ibc-go emits event attributes which are not valid UTF-8, so we need to use this definition to be able to parse them. In Protobuf, bytes and string are wire-compatible, so doing this strictly increases the amount fo data we can parse.

See this Hermes PR for background information: informalsystems/hermes#3768

… UTF-8 data

Use the v0.34 definition of `abci.Event` which does not enforce valid UTF-8 data
for its `key` and `value` attributes, specifying them as `bytes` instead of `string`.
