events: fix memory leak, don't leak event names
Before this commit, events were set to undefined rather than deleted from the EventEmitter's backing dictionary for performance reasons: `delete obj.key` causes a transition of the dictionary's hidden class and that can be costly. Unfortunately, that introduces a memory leak when many events are added and then removed again. The strings containing the event names are never reclaimed by the garbage collector because they remain part of the dictionary. That's why this commit makes EventEmitter delete events again. This effectively reverts commit 0397223. Fixes #5970.
