Allow emiting monitoring events from non connected node terminals

Currently in order to let a flow in ACE emit a business monitoring event through a node terminal, this terminal needs to be wired to a downstream node, otherwise it is ignored. The consequence is that terminals that you want to monitor, usually (but not only) failure and error terminals, need to be wired with the issue that by wiring a failure terminal you change the final state of the flow from error to success which mess up with error handling and like transactions.

The solution is to wire to a throw node forcing the final flow status to error. However this approach generates unnecessary cramped flows that are difficult to follow and maintain. If your original flow had a certain complexity with multiple branches inputs and outputs this leads to increasingly busy flows with very difficult to setup error handling.

If we could just emit business monitoring events through unwired node terminals the resulting flows would be way cleaner and easier to maintain and develop. The failure/error condition is obtained anyway either if the terminal is wired or not, so it would only make sense that we could capture that status without modifying the logic of our flow.
