      Currently, when one wants to add a new verbose category, they have to:

      1. Update api_data.py with the new verbose category
      2. Update wiredtiger.in with the new verbose category
      3. Run s_all, which runs verbose.py that generates some code

      It would be great to avoid step (2) and only do (1) and (3) as api_data.py should be the source of truth and we should not ask developers to interact with wiredtiger.in in this scenario.

      The goal of this ticket is to revisit verbose.py to pull the right information from api_data.py and generate the necessary code.
