Removes the unsaved {CollectibleEventParameters} from the given template to work around the
 caTissue bug described in {#save_with_template}.

 The CollectibleEventParameters are required if and only if one of the following is true:
 * the operation is a SCG save and the collected status is not pending
 * the operation is an update to a previously collected Specimen
 In all other cases, the CollectibleEventParameters are removed.

 This method is applied recursively to Specimen children.

 @param [Collectible] the Specimen or SCG template
 @return [<CollectibleEventParameters>] the removed event parameters
