Issuing both --loglevel and --loglevel-only for the same event and same level does not work

Description

If one enables an event for a given loglevel range (--loglevel), a subsequent enable for a specific loglevel (--loglevel-only) will not throw any error, but will have no effect.

For example:

lttng create
lttng enable-event -j myevent --loglevel warning
lttng enable-event -j myevent --loglevel-only warning

lttng list will still only show:

Events (Logger name):
---------------------
    - myevent [enabled] (loglevel <= JUL_WARNING)

It seems like a bug, as those are two different "event rules" and could be enabled side-by-side.

Note that if the two log levels are different (even if the conditions are "overlapping"), then it works correctly:

lttng create
lttng enable-event -j myevent --loglevel warning
lttng enable-event -j myevent --loglevel-only severe

lttng list then shows

Events (Logger name):
---------------------
    - myevent [enabled] (loglevel == JUL_SEVERE)
    - myevent [enabled] (loglevel <= JUL_WARNING)

The same problem also happens with the standard UST domain (-u), although in that case an error is reported:

lttng create
lttng enable-event -u myevent --loglevel debug
lttng enable-event -u myevent --loglevel-only debug
Error: Event myevent: UST event already enabled (channel channel0, session auto-20150901-154522)

I've tried the branch, and it fixes the problem for the JUL and log4j domains. Great!

However the problem from comment #913-3 (with the -u domain) still happens, albeit with a slightly different error message now:

$ lttng enable-event -u myevent --loglevel-only debug
Error: Event myevent: Enable UST event failed (channel channel0, session bozo)

I don't see this error:

Are you trying with the latest version of this branch?

Ok nevermind. I tried again on a clean environment and was not able to reproduce the problem. I must have had an old sessiond running or something.

So it works fine! I also tested that the notifications are sent correctly to the agents via the TCP socket (at least for the -j/-l domains).
