Reset session sql_mode before creating system tables as it
is done in the mysql_fix_privilege_tables.sql script.

      
min() and max() functions are implemented in MySQL as macros.
This means that max(a,b) is expanded to: ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))
Note how 'a' is quoted two times.
Now imagine 'a' is a recursive function call that's several 10s of levels deep.
And the recursive function does max() with a function arg as well to dive into
recursion.
This means that simple function call can take most of the clock time.
Identified and fixed several such calls to max()/min() : including the IF() 
sql function implementation.

      
Community contribution fix for Serbian translation in error message list.

Fixed typo and removed duplicate call to get_current_user.

Calling List<Cached_item>::delete_elements for the same list twice
caused a crash of the server in the function JOIN::cleaunup.
Ensured that delete_elements() in JOIN::cleanup would be called only once.

                  
Range scan in descending order for c <= <col> <= c type of
ranges was ignoring the DESC flag.
However some engines like InnoDB have the primary key parts 
as a suffix for every secondary key.
When such primary key suffix is used for ordering ignoring 
the DESC is not valid.
But we generally would like to do this because it's faster.
            
Fixed by performing only reverse scan if the primary key is used.
Removed some dead code in the process.

If the server failed to expired log files during start up it could crash.

Problem: missing initialization, if the previous test
fails leaving table t1, client_xml fails as well.
Fix: adding initialization.

Includes fix for Bug #38180, "options are read from ~/my.cnf instead of ~/.my.cnf"

Don't initalize federated if it's disabled by a command line option.

Pull out some of unpack_dirname() into normalize_dirname(); this
new function does not expand "~" to the home directory.  Use this
function in unpack_dirname(), and use it during init_default_directories()
to remove duplicate entries without losing track of which directory
is a user's home dir.

Reverting the previous patch

- In QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT::read_keys_and_merge: when we got table->sort from Unique,
  tell init_read_record() not to use rr_from_cache() because a) rowids are already sorted
  and b) it might be that the the data is used by filesort(), which will need record rowids
  (which rr_from_cache() cannot provide).
- Fully de-initialize the table->sort read in QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT::get_next(). This fixes BUG#35477.
(bk trigger: file as fix for BUG#35478).

The crash was caused by freeing the internal parser stack during the parser
execution.
This occured only for complex stored procedures, after reallocating the parser
stack using my_yyoverflow(), with the following C call stack:
- MYSQLparse()
- any rule calling sp_head::restore_lex()
- lex_end()
- x_free(lex->yacc_yyss), xfree(lex->yacc_yyvs)

The root cause is the implementation of stored procedures, which breaks the
assumption from 4.1 that there is only one LEX structure per parser call.

The solution is to separate the LEX structure into:
- attributes that represent a statement (the current LEX structure),
- attributes that relate to the syntax parser itself (Yacc_state),
so that parsing multiple statements in stored programs can create multiple
LEX structures while not changing the unique Yacc_state.

Now, Yacc_state and the existing Lex_input_stream are aggregated into
Parser_state, a structure that represent the complete state of the (Lexical +
Syntax) parser.

offset for time part in UUIDs was 1/1000 of what it
should be. In other words, offset was off.

Also handle the case where we count into the future
when several UUIDs are generated in one "tick", and
then the next call is late enough for us to unwind
some but not all of those borrowed ticks.

Lastly, handle the case where we keep borrowing and
borrowing until the tick-counter overflows by also
changing into a new "numberspace" by creating a new
random suffix.
