'CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ... SELECT' behaviour
BUG#47132, BUG#47442, BUG49494, BUG#23992 and BUG#48814 will disappear
automatically after the this patch.
BUG#55617 is fixed by this patch too.
            
This is the 5.5 part.
It implements:
- 'CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ... SELECT' statement will not insert
  anything and binlog anything if the table already exists.
  It only generate a warning that table already exists.
- A couple of test cases for the behavior changing.

      
Added InnoDB to the 'default' plugin group, and modified 
the autoconf script so the 'default' group is actually 
built by default.
      
(i.e  ./configure.am == ./configure.am --with-plugins=default ,
instead of being ./configure.am --with-plugins=none )

dict_load_index_low(): Rename the parameter "cached" to "allocated"
and clarify the comments.

which didn't fully fix the test because the order of the returned
rows was different in embedded and non-embedded version. So the only
way to fix this is to add an ORDER BY clause.

           rpl_ndb.rpl_ndb_2other fails

The two regressions tests failed after WL#5349 was
pushed, since they were writted with the implicit
requirement that MyISAM is the default storage engine.

Adding --default-storage-engine=MyISAM as startup
parameter, to mimic the pre-wl#5349 situation.

output.

which improved the sampling algorithm. The endspace test is non-deterministic
because it does not include ORDER BY clause in its queries.

which improved the sampling algorithm. I have manually checked that the new
values are actually the correct ones, for example:
-rows	16
+rows	32
the number of rows returned by the query is 32.

Improve the range estimation algorithm.

Fix Bug#53761 RANGE estimation for matched rows may be 200 times different

Improve the range estimation algorithm.

Previously:
For a given level the algo knows the number of pages in the requested range
and the number of records on the leftmost and the rightmost page. Then it
assumes all pages in between contain the average between the two border pages
and multiplies this average number by the number of intermediate pages.

With this change:
Same idea, but peek a few (10) of the intermediate pages to get a better
estimate of the average number of records per page. If there are less than 10
intermediate pages then all of them will be scanned and the result will be
precise, not an estimation.

In the bug report one of the examples has a btree with a snippet of the leaf
level like this:
page1(899 records), page2(1 record), page3(1 record), page4(1 record)
so when trying to estimate, the previous algo, assumed there are average
(899+1)/2=450 records per page which went terribly wrong. With this change
page2 and page3 will be read and the exact number of records will be returned.

The system variable 'thread_concurrency' has been
(re-)enabled on all platforms, to prevent startup
errors.

'thread_concurrency' is unused and has no effect,
on any platform, in MySQL 5.1 and later versions.  It 
will be deprecated, and removed, in context of

           locks on the table

Fixing the partitioning specifics after TRUNCATE TABLE in
bug-42643 was fixed.

Reorganize of code to decrease the size of the giant switch
in mysql_execute_command, and to prepare for future parser
reengineering. Moved code into Sql_statement objects.

Updated patch according to davi's review comments.

pushdown.
      
NDB supports only a limited set of item nodes for use in engine condition
pushdown. Because of this adding cache for const expression effectively
disabled this optimization.
      
The ndb_serialize_cond function is extended to support Item_cache and treat
it as a constant values.
A helper function called ndb_serialize_const is added. It is used to create
Ndb_cond value node from given const item.

Note that this was originally pushed by Calvin but the was later
reverted by mistake.

bug#54702

The bug was fixed by the patch for Bug 52044.
Add a test case.

into an own implementation file.

The problem was that SHOW CREATE EVENT released all metadata locks
held by the current transaction. This made any exisiting savepoints
invalid, triggering the assert when ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT later
was executed.

This patch fixes the problem by making sure SHOW CREATE EVENT only
releases metadata locks acquired by the statement itself.

Test case added to event_trans.test.

           corruption on ADD PARTITION and LOCK TABLE
Bug#53770: Server crash at handler.cc:2076 on
           LOAD DATA after timed out COALESCE PARTITION

5.5 fix for:
Bug#51042: REORGANIZE PARTITION can leave table in an
           inconsistent state in case of crash
Needs to be back-ported to 5.1

5.5 fix for:
Bug#50418: DROP PARTITION does not interact with
           transactions

Main problem was non-persistent operations done
before meta-data lock was taken (53770+53676).
And 53676 needed to keep the table/partitions opened and locked
while copying the data to the new partitions.

Also added thorough tests to spot some additional bugs
in the ddl_log code, which could result in bad state
between the .frm and partitions.

Collapsed patch, includes all fixes required from the reviewers.

and a comment for the case when a connection
issuing FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK
has an open handler.
