message:
  Fix for Bug#40128: drop-no_root fails under windows in 6.0-rpl.
  
  The problem was that directories with no permission (000) files
  are deleted differently on UNIX and on Windows.
  
  On UNIX, 000-permission file is deleted perfectly, but other files
  are left in the directory.
  
  On Windows, 000-permission file is not deleted, but other files
  are deleted.
  
  Also, the fix needed a change in mysqltest.c: 'chmod' directive
  should return a positive error code (in order to be handled).
  It's decided to return a constant '1' for all error codes
  just to be OS-independent.

  A fix for Bug#26704: Failing DROP DATABASE brings
  mysql-client out of sync.

  The problem was that we changed current database w/o caring
  whether it was dropped successfully or not.

  The fix is not to change current database if we failed to drop it.

Backport of the fix for BUG#33730 "Full table scan instead selected partitions for query more than 10 partitions"
from 6.0, made in sergefp@mysql.com-20090205190644-q8632sniogedhtsu

(from revision konstantin@mysql.com-20080627154042-923m6lzk7z77lrgj ). This moves the slow part
(10 seconds over 13) into a separate big test.

2. Mark ndb, rpl_ndb test suites experimental.

removed instances of __NT__ from code. We now only build "NT" binaries

Cleanup pthread_self(), pthread_create(), pthread_join() implementation on Windows.
Prior implementation is was unnecessarily complicated and even differs in embedded
and non-embedded case.
      
Improvements in this patch:
* pthread_t is now the unique thread ID, instead of HANDLE returned by beginthread
      
This simplifies pthread_self() to be just straight GetCurrentThreadId().
prior it was much  art involved in passing the beginthread() handle from the caller
to the TLS structure in the child thread ( did not work for the main thread of
course)
      
* remove MySQL specific my_thread_init()/my_thread_end() from pthread_create.
No automagic is done on Unix on pthread_create(). Having the same on Windows will 
improve portability and avoid extra #ifdef's
      
* remove redefinition of getpid() - it was defined as GetCurrentThreadId()

CMakeLists.txt files cleanup
- remove SAFEMALLOC and SAFE_MUTEX definitions that were 
present in *each* CMakeLists.txt. Instead, put them into top level 
CMakeLists.txt, but disable on Windows, because
a) SAFEMALLOC does not add any functionality that is not already
present in Debug C runtime ( and 2 safe malloc one on top of the other 
only unnecessarily slows down the server) 
      
b)SAFE_MUTEX does not work on Windows  and have been
explicitely  disabled on Windows with #undef previously.  Fortunately,
ntdll does  pretty good  job identifying l problems with 
CRITICAL_SECTIONs.
DebugBreak()s on using uninited critical section, unlocking unowned 
critical section)
      
-Also, remove occationally used -D_DEBUG (added by compiler 
anyway)

We cann connect() in a non-blocking mode to be able to specify a
non-standard timeout.

The problem was that we did not fetch the status from the
non-blocking connect(). We assumed that poll() would not return
a POLLIN flag if the connect failed. But on some platforms this
is not true.

After a successful poll() we do now retrieve the status value
from connect() with getsockopt(...SO_ERROR...). Now we do know
if (and how) the connect failed.

The test case for my investigation was rpl.rlp_ssl1 on an
Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64 machine. Both, IPV4 and IPV6 were active.
'localhost' resolved first for IPV6 and then for IPV4. The
connection over IPV6 was blocked. rpl.rlp_ssl1 timed out
as it did not notice the failed connect(). The first read()
failed, which was interpreted as a master crash and the
connection was tried to reestablish with the same result
until the retry limit was reached.

With the fix, the connect() problem is immediately recognized,
and the connect() is retried on the second resolution for
'localhost', which is successful.

DECIMAL and TIMESTAMP used to have NUM_FLAG, but NEWDECIMAL was forgotten.
It's correct that TIMESTAMP does not have the flag nowadays (manual will be updated, connectors
developers will be notified).
