Description:
offspring of Bug#31111 - Andrey suggested new bug has to be opened.

The current behavior of --event-scheduler without a value is mapped to --event-scheduler=off, which is counter-intuitive. 

--event-scheduler should actually be used to enable (so, equal to --event-scheduler=1) the events code.

How to repeat:
mysqld --event-scheduler

Suggested fix:
change value of --event-scheduler to actually enable rather than disable events

The --event-scheduler option without a value disabled the event
scheduler. Now it enables the event scheduler.
