Some bigger code changes was necessary becasue of the multi-table-update and the new HANDLER code

Clean up from Bar and Antony code review. Found an issue with the header file were it could end up corrupted.

mysqld.cc:
  Added call to create_pid_file to start_signal_handler on windows.  Also removed the #ifndef WINDOWS from two calls that deletes the pid file

Noteworthy:
- New HANDLER code
- New multi-update-grant-check code
- Table lock code in ha_innodb.cc was not applied

and testcases

Cleaned up patch for checking locks for multi-table updates

into mysql.com:/home/dlenev/src/mysql-4.1-bf

introduced during implementation of TIMESTAMP columns, which are able 
to store NULLs (Unfortunately it is impossible to write test case for
this. Kudos to Holyfoot for noticing it!)

  Raise maximum column prefix len to 767 bytes, so that MySQL can create a column prefix index of 255 UTF-8 characters (each takes 3 bytes at the maximum); add comments about why innobase_get_at_most_n_mbchars() works ok
dict0mem.h:
  Raise maximum column prefix len to 767 bytes, so that MySQL can create a column prefix index of 255 UTF-8 characters (each takes 3 bytes at the maximum)
row0mysql.c:
  If MySQL tries to create a column prefix index longer that 255 UTF-8 characters, give an error, and drop the table from the InnoDB internal data dictionary. MySQL did not drop the table there in its own error handling.
