Frequency: Always Happens
Regression: Yes, this happens in all previous versions

Problem Description:
A cmdlet should be available for waiting for event log entries. Currently the user will need to manually configure an event subscription in order to listen for new event log entries.
A new cmdlet (for example Wait-EventLog) should be available and capable of listening for new events in one or more specified event logs, both from local and remote computers.

Expected Results:
