During creation of the table list of
processed tables hidden I_S table 'VARIABLES'
is erroneously added into the table list.
it leads to ER_UNKNOWN_TABLE error in
TABLE_LIST::add_table_to_list() function.
The fix is to skip addition of hidden I_S
tables into the table list.

require O(#scans) memory

When an index merge operation was restarted, it would
re-allocate the Unique object controlling the duplicate row
ID elimination. Fixed by making the Unique object a member
of QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT and thus reusing it throughout
the lifetime of this object.

file .\filesort.cc, line 149 (part II)

Problem: the server didn't disregard sort order 
for some zero length tuples.

Fix: skip sort order in such a case 
(zero length NOT NULL string functions).

Incorrect handling of NULL arguments could lead to a crash on
the IN or CASE operations when either NULL arguments were
passed explicitly as arguments (IN) or implicitly generated by
the WITH ROLLUP modifier (both IN and CASE).

Item_func_case::find_item() assumed all necessary comparators
to be instantiated in fix_length_and_dec(). However, in the
presence of WITH ROLLUP modifier, arguments could be
substituted with an Item_null leading to an "unexpected"
STRING_RESULT comparator being invoked.

In addition to the problem identical to the above,
Item_func_in::val_int() could crash even with explicitly passed
NULL arguments due to an optimization in fix_length_and_dec()
leading to NULL arguments being ignored during comparators
creation.

In process of record search it is not taken into account
that inital quick->file->ref value could be inapplicable
to range interval. After proper row is found this value is
stored into the record buffer and later the record is
filtered out at condition evaluation stage.
The fix is store a refernce of found row to the handler ref field.

InnoDB came in a new version "simultanously" with the
commit.  This patch is a minor change to the new innodb
regression test suite. 

Problem: a flaw (derefencing a NULL pointer) in the LIKE optimization
code may lead to a server crash in some rare cases.

Fix: check the pointer before its dereferencing.

mysql_client_binlog_statement

Problem: server may read from unassigned memory performing
"wrong" BINLOG queries.

Fix: never read from unassigned memory.

The default storage engine is changed from MyISAM to
InnoDB, in all builds except for the embedded server.

In addition, the following system variables are 
changed:

  * innodb_file_per_table is enabled
  * innodb_strict_mode is enabled
  * innodb_file_format_name_update is changed
    to 'Barracuda'

The test suite is changed so that tests that do not
explicitly include the have_innodb.inc are run with
--default-storage-engine=MyISAM.  This is to ease the
transition, so that most regression tests are run
with the same engine as before.

Some tests are disabled for the embedded server
regression test, as the output of certain statements
will be different that for the regular server
(i.e SELECT @@default_storage_engine).  This is to
ease transition.

The number and/or names of our files for the main test suite
(contents of "mysql-test/t/") now exceeds the command line
length limit on AIX.
Solve the problem by using separate "cp" commands for the
various file name extensions.

to trunk-bugfixing, no contents changes (already done separate).
