- A prerequisite cleanup patch for making KILL reliable.

The test case main.kill did not work reliably.

The following problems have been identified:

1. A kill signal could go lost if it came in, short before a
thread went reading on the client connection.

2. A kill signal could go lost if it came in, short before a
thread went waiting on a condition variable.

These problems have been solved as follows. Please see also
added code comments for more details.

1. There is no safe way to detect, when a thread enters the
blocking state of a read(2) or recv(2) system call, where it
can be interrupted by a signal. Hence it is not possible to
wait for the right moment to send a kill signal. It has been
decided, not to fix it in the code.  Instead, the test case
repeats the KILL statement until the connection terminates.

2. Before waiting on a condition variable, we register it
together with a synchronizating mutex in THD::mysys_var. After
this, we need to test THD::killed again. At some places we did
only test it in a loop condition before the registration. When
THD::killed had been set between this test and the registration,
we entered waiting without noticing the killed flag. Additional
checks ahve been introduced where required.

In addition to the above, a re-write of the main.kill test
case has been done. All sleeps have been replaced by Debug
Sync Facility synchronization. A couple of sync points have
been added to the server code.

To avoid further problems, if the test case fails in spite of
the fixes, the test case has been added to the "experimental"
list for now.
