This was a case of too much code. The --start-dirty option should act
  just like --start-and-exit, except it skips the database initialization
  step. Now it does, which means it picks up the options from the specified
  test case.

Retrieving data from compressed MyISAM table which is bigger than 4G on 32-bit box
with mmap() support results in server crash.

mmap() accepts length of bytes to be mapped in second param, which is 32-bit
size_t. But we pass data_file_length, which is 64-bit my_off_t. As a result only
first data_file_length % 4G were mapped.

This fix adds additional condition for mmap() usage, that is use mmap() for
compressed table which size is no more than 4G on 32-bit platform.

Conversion from int and real numbers to UCS2 didn't work fine: 
CONVERT(100, CHAR(50) UNICODE)
CONVERT(103.9, CHAR(50) UNICODE)

The problem appeared because numbers have binary charset, so,
simple charset recast binary->ucs2 was performed
instead of real conversion.

Fixed to make numbers pretend to be non-binary.

CONNECTION_ID() was implemented as a constant Item, i.e. an instance of
Item_static_int_func class holding value computed at creation time.
Since Items are created on parsing, and trigger statements are parsed
on table open, the first connection to open a particular table would
effectively set its own CONNECTION_ID() inside trigger statements for
that table.

Re-implement CONNECTION_ID() as a class derived from Item_int_func, and
compute connection_id on every call to fix_fields().

a race between updating and checking Max_used_connections.  This is done in
a loop until either disconnect finished or timeout expired.  In a latter case
the test will fail.

Fixed in parser. rpl_view gained no changes but rpl_view-slave.opt.
