Event: Restore the constructor property on jQuery.Event prototype

dcherman · gibson042 · commit d4a998f62fde · 2014-09-04T03:29:16.000-04:00
The original definition of the jQuery.Event prototype was paving over the `constructor` property which was causing jQuery.isPlainObject to improperly report that an instance of jQuery.Event was a plain object. Fixes #15090 Closes gh-1580 (cherry picked from commit b807aed)
