Bug#27430 "Crash in subquery code when in PS and table DDL changed after

 PREPARE", review fixes:
- make the patch follow the specification of WL#4166 and remove  
the new error that was originally introduced.
Now the client never gets an error from reprepare, unless it failed.
I.e. even if the statement at hand returns a completely different
result set, this is not considered a server error.
The C API library, that can not handle this situation, was modified to
return a client error.
Added additional test coverage.
