Description:
In mysql 5.1.36, a number of config variables were changed, especially the plugin control
variables, like "innodb". Accepted forms for plugin loading variable <var> is now <var>,
<var>=on, <var>=force, enable-<var>, <var>=off, skip-<var>, and disable-<var>. These
variables shuold probably change type to tristate in the config description file, with a
corresponding extension of the agent. 

Additionally, all boolean variables <var> should have counterparts enable-<var>,
disable-<var> and skip-<var>. 

How to repeat:
NA.
