Calling ha_start_of_new_statement() for all table handlers under partition engine.
This will enable innodb transactions to be declared as read/write.

References lp:1216904 - guaranteeing native "create table like.." processing when running without wsrep provider
Merged the fix from lp:~codership/codership-mysql/5.5-23, rev 3906

enable LOAD DATA transaction splitting
Added new global variable: wsrep_load_data_splitting to control if splitting is wanted or not

Enabling slave applier thread to send COND_thread_count

(fix of http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=69623)

  
In the case of loose scan used as input for order by, end_send()
didn't detect correctly that a loose scan was used, and didn't copy
the non-aggregated fields from the temp table used for ORDER BY.
  
The fix uses the fact that the quick select used for sorting is
attached to JOIN::pre_sort_join_tab instead of JOIN::join_tab.

MDEV-4782: Valgrind warnings (Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value) with InnoDB, semijoin
- in sub_select(): don't call table->file->position() when reading the first record
  produced an error.

Backport the fix olav.sandstaa@sun.com-20101102184747-qfuntqwj021imy9r:
"Fix for Bug#52660 Perf. regr. using ICP for MyISAM on range queries on an index containing TEXT" 
(together with further fixes in that code) into MyISAM and Aria.

mdev-4173: Wrong result (extra row) with semijoin=on, joins in outer query, LEFT JOIN in the subquery
Apply the patch from Patryk Pomykalski:
- create_internal_tmp_table_from_heap() will now return information whether
  the last row that we tried to write was a duplicate row.
(mysql-5.6 also has this change)

- Make JOIN::cleanup(true) also work correctly when the query is KILLed
  after join optimization was started but before a query plan was produced

MDEV-4536: ...sql/sql_base.cc:1598: bool close_thread_table(THD*, TABLE**): Assertion
- Make JOIN::cleanup(full=true) always free join optimization tabs.

- merge_same_index_scans() may put the same SEL_ARG tree in multiple result plans.
  make it call incr_refs() on the SEL_ARG trees that it does key_or() on, because 
  key_or(sel_arg_tree_1, sel_arg_tree_2) call may invalidate SEL_ARG trees pointed 
  by sel_arg_tree_1 and sel_arg_tree_2.
  

MDEV-4409 - Fix deadlock in MySQL key cache code, that can happen if there is a key cache resize running in parallel with an update.

If there is a key cache resize,a  thread writing to key cache, will pause waiting  until resize finishes. However this thread is won't be woken, because resize does not  signaling waiters anymore. This is a regression introduced in WL#86(segmented MyISAM key cache)
The fix is to unconditionally release  threads waiting on resize_queue when resize  finishes, as in pre-WL#86 code.

MDEV-4643 MariaDB crashes consistently when trying a SELECT on VIEW with a UNION and an additional JOIN in SELECT

open derived temp tables *before* trying QUICK_SELECT for them,
handler::multi_range_read_info() needs an open table.

don't ignore the return value fix_fields()

MDEV-4257 Assertion `!table || (!table->read_set || bitmap_is_set(table->read_set, field_index))' fails on FROM subquery with fulltext search, derived_merge=on

remove emtpty Item_func_match::update_used_tables() method

Fix of nested join parsing of illegal query.

Cleanup: remove TIME_FUZZY_DATE.

Introduce TIME_FUZZY_DATES which means "very fuzzy, the resulting
value is only used for comparison. It can be invalid date, fine, as long as it can be
compared".

Updated many tests results (they're better now).

for field terminators, uchar was compared with char
