WL#1687 - Optimize UNION DISTINCT ... UNION ALL (again).
HEAP: Copies the key count to a backup variable and sets the key count to zero. That way, no HEAP function will ever try to touch any index. Re-enabling is done by copying back the backup variable. To avoid memory leak at table close, disable deletes all index trees. Re-enabling must be done with empty indexes and data anyway. Otherwise, the indexes would need to be repaired, wich HEAP is not capable of. MyISAM: Only the key_map is cleared and set. Re-enabling must be done with empty indexes and data. Otherwise, repair needs to be done which will enable all keys persistently. The former implementation disabled only non-unique keys and maked this persistent. The new implementation additionally can disable all keys, but only without making this persistent. Re-enabling all keys can be done without repair, if data file and indexes are empty.
