returns unexpected result

If:
  1. a table has a not nullable BIT column c1 with a length
     shorter than 8 bits and some additional not nullable
     columns c2 etc, and
  2. the WHERE clause is like: (c1 = constant) AND c2 ...,
the SELECT query returns unexpected result set.


The server stores BIT columns in a tricky way to save disk
space: if column's bit length is not divisible by 8, the
server places reminder bits among the null bits at the start
of a record. The rest bytes are stored in the record itself,
and Field::ptr points to these rest bytes.

However if a bit length of the whole column is less than 8,
there are no remaining bytes, and there is nothing to store in
the record at its regular place. In this case Field::ptr points
to bytes actually occupied by the next column in a record.
If both columns (BIT and the next column) are NOT NULL,
the Field::eq function incorrectly deduces that this is the
same column, so query transformation/equal item elimination
code (see build_equal_items_for_cond) may mix these columns
and damage conditions containing references to them.

used causes server crash.
      
When the loose index scan access method is used values of aggregated functions
are precomputed by it. Aggregation of such functions shouldn't be performed
in this case and functions should be treated as normal ones.
The create_tmp_table function wasn't taking this into account and this led to
a crash if a query has MIN/MAX aggregate functions and employs temporary table
and loose index scan.
Now the JOIN::exec and the create_tmp_table functions treat MIN/MAX aggregate
functions as normal ones when the loose index scan is used.

Typo fixed.
No test case as we actually don't use rtree_get_first() 
and rtree_get_next() at present.

Problem: data consistency check (maximum record length) for a correct
MyISAM table with CHECKSUM=1 and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC option 
may fail due to wrong inner MyISAM parameter. In result we may 
have the table marked as 'corrupted'. 

Fix: properly set MyISAM maximum record length parameter.

Dumping information about locks in use by sending a SIGHUP signal
to the server or by invoking the "mysqladmin debug" command may
lead to a server crash in debug builds or to undefined behavior in
production builds.

The problem was that a mutex that protects a lock object (THR_LOCK)
might have been destroyed before the lock object was actually removed
from the list of locks in use, causing a race condition with other
threads iterating over the list. The solution is to destroy the mutex
only after removing lock object from the list.

plugin_dir option backported from 5.1

  Bug#26687 rpl_ddl test fails if run with --innodb option
  Details:
  - The current test + the expected results do only fit
    if the slave uses MyISAM for mysqltest1.t1.
    Therefore skip the test if we do not meet these
    conditions.
  - The solution for 5.1 will look quite different
    because "ps_ddl" is already much improved in
    MySQL 5.1.

Also, remove CMake generated visual studio project files.

Send_field.org_col_name has broken value on secondary execution.
It happens when result field is created from the field which belongs to view
due to forgotten assignment of some Send_field attributes. 
The fix:
set Send_field.org_col_name,org_table_name with correct value during Send_field intialization.

more clever gcc version checking.

Tilde expansion could fail when it was to expand to an empty string (such as
when HOME is set to an empty string), especially on systems where size_t is
unsigned.

Length value is the length of the field,
Max_length is the length of the field value.
So Max_length can not be more than Length.
The fix: fixed calculation of the Item_empty_string item length

overflowed, we truncated the first operand rather than the
longest. Now truncating least significant places instead
for more precise multiplications.

Post-merge fix: mysql_client_test.c is compiled by C compilers

and it's explicitly forbidden by ISO C90.

The parser code in sql/sql_yacc.yy needs to be more robust to out of
memory conditions, so that when parsing a query fails due to OOM,
the thread gracefully returns an error.

Before this fix, a new/alloc returning NULL could:
- cause a crash, if dereferencing the NULL pointer,
- produce a corrupted parsed tree, containing NULL nodes,
- alter the semantic of a query, by silently dropping token values or nodes

With this fix:
- C++ constructors are *not* executed with a NULL "this" pointer
when operator new fails.
This is achieved by declaring "operator new" with a "throw ()" clause,
so that a failed new gracefully returns NULL on OOM conditions.

- calls to new/alloc are tested for a NULL result,

- The thread diagnostic area is set to an error status when OOM occurs.
This ensures that a request failing in the server properly returns an
ER_OUT_OF_RESOURCES error to the client.

- OOM conditions cause the parser to stop immediately (MYSQL_YYABORT).
This prevents causing further crashes when using a partially built parsed
tree in further rules in the parser.

No test scripts are provided, since automating OOM failures is not
instrumented in the server.
Tested under the debugger, to verify that an error in alloc_root cause the
thread to returns gracefully all the way to the client application, with
an ER_OUT_OF_RESOURCES error.
