Bug#46760: Fast ALTER TABLE no longer works for InnoDB

      
Despite copying the value of the old table's row type
we don't always have to mark row type as being specified.
Innodb uses this to check if it can do fast ALTER TABLE
or not.
Fixed by correctly flagging the presence of row_type 
only when it's actually changed.
Added a test case for 39200.
