event: document select case slice use and add edge case test (#16680)

Feed keeps active subscription channels in a slice called 'f.sendCases'.
The Send method tracks the active cases in a local variable 'cases'
whose value is f.sendCases initially. 'cases' shrinks to a shorter
prefix of f.sendCases every time a send succeeds, moving the successful
case out of range of the active case list.

This can be confusing because the two slices share a backing array. Add
more comments to document what is going on. Also add a test for removing
a case that is in 'f.sentCases' but not 'cases'.
