    Backporting WL#3759 Optimize identifier conversion in client-server protocol · 482d3bfd

    This patch provides performance improvements:
    - send_fields() when character_set_results = latin1
      is now about twice faster for column/table/database
      names, consisting on ASCII characters.
    
    Changes:
    
    - Protocol doesn't use "convert" temporary buffer anymore,
      and converts strings directly to "packet".
    
    - General conversion optimization: quick conversion
      of ASCII strings was added.
    
    modified files:
    
    include/m_ctype.h
    - Adding a new flag.
    - Adding a new function prototype
    
    libmysqld/lib_sql.cc
    - Adding quick conversion method for embedded library:
      conversion is now done directly to result buffer,
      without using a temporary buffer.
    
    mysys/charset.c
    - Mark all dynamic ucs2 character sets as non-ASCII
    - Mark some dymamic 7bit and 8bit charsets as non-ASCII
      (for example swe7 is not fully ASCII compatible).
    
    sql/protocol.cc
    - Adding quick method to convert a string directly
      into protocol buffer, without using a temporary buffer.
    
    sql/protocol.h
    - Adding a new method prototype
    
    sql/sql_string.cc
      Optimization for conversion between two ASCII-compatible charsets:
    - quickly convert ASCII strings,
      switch to mc_wc->wc_mb method only when a non-ASCII character is met.
    - copy four ASCII characters at once on i386
    
    strings/conf_to_src.c
    - Marking non-ASCII character sets with a flag.
    
    strings/ctype-extra.c
    - Regenerating ctype-extra.c by running "conf_to_src".
    
    strings/ctype-uca.c
    - Marking UCS2 character set as non-ASCII.
    
    strings/ctype-ucs2.c
    - Marking UCS2 character set as non-ASCII.
    
    strings/ctype.c
    - A new function to detect if a 7bit or 8bit character set
      is ascii compatible.
