Fixed a possible problem with reading of dynamic records
when a write cache is active. The cache must be flushed
whenever a part of the file in the write cache is to be 
read.

Added a read optimization to _mi_read_dynamic_record().

No test case. This was a hypothetical but existing problem.


myisam/mi_dynrec.c:
  Bug#20719 - Reading dynamic records with write buffer could fail
  
  Fixed a possible problem with reading of dynamic records
  when a write cache is active. The cache must be flushed
  whenever a part of the file in the write cache is to be 
  read. This must be done before the read of the header
  and before the read of the rest block.
  
  Renamed the 'flag' and 'skipp_deleted_blocks' variables.
  
  Added a read optimization to _mi_read_dynamic_record()
  that was present in _mi_read_rnd_dynamic_record() already.
  After _mi_get_block_info() we have some bytes of the record
  in the header buffer already. No need to read them again.

information is set correctly.

  and "--with-ndbcluster-only".
  This is necessary because newer build tools will issue them, and the test 
  script should tolerate that.

This fix is necessary because thr_multi_lock()

  Bug#16780: Extend port range to make space for 5.1 NDBCLUSTER_PORT_SLAVE


mysql-test/mysql-test-run.sh:
  Bug#16780: Extend port range to make space for 5.1 NDBCLUSTER_PORT_SLAVE

When setup_fields() function finds field named '*' it expands it to the list
of all table fields. It does so by checking that the first char of
field_name is '*', but it doesn't checks that the '* is the only char.
Due to this, when updating table with a field named like '*name', such field
is wrongly treated as '*' and expanded. This leads to making list of fields
to update being longer than list of the new values. Later, the fill_record() 
function crashes by dereferencing null when there is left fields to update,
but no more values.

Added check in the setup_fields() function which ensures that the field
expanding will be done only when '*' is the only char in the field name.

  After-fix optimizations proposed and finally

  get_lock_data() gets a flag for storing the lock
  positions in the new TABLE elements.
  mysql_lock_remove() can now remove a lock faster
  and more precisely as it has needed info in TABLE now.
  mysql_unlock_read_tables() and mysql_lock_merge() must 
  now adjust the new elements of TABLE when modifying locks.
  mysql_lock_have_duplicate() can now work faster on
  the existing lock as the positions in the lock
  arrays are known for each table.
  get_lock_data() assigns the new TABLE elements 
  on request of the new flag.
