handling.

The problem was that parsing of nested regular expression involved
recursive calls. Such recursion didn't take into account the amount of
available stack space, which ended up leading to stack overflow crashes.

Bug #55755 : Date STD variable signness breaks server on FreeBSD and OpenBSD

* Added a check to configure on the size of time_t
* Created a macro to check for a valid time_t that is safe to use with datetime 
  functions and store in TIMESTAMP columns.
* Used the macro consistently instead of the ad-hoc checks introduced by 52315
* Fixed compliation warnings on platforms where the size of time_t is smaller than
  the size of a long (e.g. OpenBSD 4.8 64 amd64).

Bug #52315: utc_date() crashes when system time > year 2037

* Added a correct check for the timestamp range instead of just variable size check to
SET TIMESTAMP.
* Added overflow checking before converting to time_t. 
* Using a correct localized error message in this case instead of the generic error.
* Added a test suite.
* fixed the checks so that they check for unsigned time_t as well. Used the checks 
  consistently across the source code.
* fixed the original test case to expect the new error code.

Attempt to create InnoDB table with non-nullable column of
geometry type having an unique key with length 12 on it and
with some other candidate key led to server crash due to
assertion failure in both non-debug and debug builds.

The problem was that such a non-candidate key could have
been sorted as the first key in table/.FRM, before any legit
candidate keys. This resulted in assertion failure in InnoDB
engine which assumes that primary key should either be the
first key in table/.FRM or should not exist at all.

The reason behind such an incorrect sorting was an wrong
value of Create_field::key_length member for geometry field
(which was set to its pack_length == 12) which confused code
in mysql_prepare_create_table(), so it would skip marking
such key as a key with partial segments.

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that this member
gets the same value of Create_field::key_length member as 
for other blob fields (from which geometry field class is
inherited), and as result unique keys on geometry fields
are correctly marked as having partial segments.

Write an additional warning message to the server log, 
explaining why a sort operation is aborted.

The output in mysqld.err will look something like:
110127 15:07:54 [ERROR] mysqld: Sort aborted: Out of memory (Needed 24 bytes)
110127 15:07:54 [ERROR] mysqld: Out of sort memory, consider increasing server sort buffer size
110127 15:07:54 [ERROR] mysqld: Sort aborted: Out of sort memory, consider increasing server sort buffer size
110127 15:07:54 [ERROR] mysqld: Sort aborted: Incorrect number of arguments for FUNCTION test.f1; expected 0, got 1

If --log-warn=2 is enabled, we output information about host/user/query as well.

in combination with IS NULL'
      
As this bug is a duplicate of bug#49322, it also includes test cases
covering this bugreport
      
Qualifying an OUTER JOIN with the condition 'WHERE <column> IS NULL',
where <column> is declared as 'NOT NULL' causes the
'not_exists_optimize' to be enabled by the optimizer.
      
In evaluate_join_record() the 'not_exists_optimize' caused
'NESTED_LOOP_NO_MORE_ROWS' to be returned immediately
when a matching row was found.
      
However, as the 'not_exists_optimize' is derived from
'JOIN_TAB::select_cond', the usual rules for condition guards
also applies for 'not_exist_optimize'. It is therefore incorrect
to check 'not_exists_optimize' without ensuring that all guards
protecting it is 'open'.
      
This fix uses the fact that 'not_exists_optimize' is derived from
a 'is_null' predicate term in 'tab->select_cond'. Furthermore,
'is_null' will evaluate to 'false' for any 'non-null' rows
once all guards protecting the is_null is open.
      
We can use this knowledge as an implicit guard check for the
'not_exists_optimize' by moving 'if (...not_exists_optimize)'
inside the handling of 'select_cond==false'. It will then
not take effect before its guards are open.
      
We also add an assert which requires that a
'not_exists_optimize' always comes together with
a select_cond. (containing 'is_null').

            
Root cause for this bug is that the optimizer try to detect&
optimize the special case:
      
'<field>  BETWEEN c1 AND c1' and handle this as the condition '<field>  = c1'
            
This was implemented inside add_key_field(.. *field, *value[]...)
which assumed field to refer key Field, and value[] to refer a [low...high]
constant pair. value[0] and value[1] was then compared for equality.
            
In a 'normal' BETWEEN condition of the form '<field>  BETWEEN val1 and val2' the
BETWEEN operation is represented with an argementlist containing the
values [<field>, val1, val2] - add_key_field() is then called with
parameters field=<field>, *value=val1.
            
However, if the BETWEEN predicate specified:
            
 1)  '<const1>  BETWEEN<const2>  AND<field>
            
the 'field' and 'value' arguments to add_key_field() had to be swapped.
This was implemented by trying to cheat add_key_field() to handle it like:
            
 2) '<const1>  GE<const2>  AND<const1>  LE<field>'
            
As we didn't really replace the BETWEEN operation with 'ge' and 'le',
add_key_field() still handled it as a 'BETWEEN' and compared the (swapped)
arguments<const1>  and<const2>  for equality. If they was equal, the
condition 1) was incorrectly 'optimized' to:
            
 3) '<field>  EQ <const1>'
            
This fix moves this optimization of '<field>  BETWEEN c1 AND c1' into
add_key_fields() which then calls add_key_equal_fields() to collect 
key equality / comparison for the key fields in the BETWEEN condition.

Third updated patch - this version also includes copyright notice in added Perl script.
This patch implements a check for such modules at runtime. If modules are not found or unable to load, the test is skipped with 
the following message:
            
            [ skipped ]  Test needs Perl modules DBI and DBD::mysql
            
Checks are done via a helper Perl script which looks for the module in a runtime environment that is as similar to that of the 
mysqlhotcopy script as possible (thus not intended for Windows environments at this time).
The helper script tells mysql-test about the result by writing information to a temporary file that is later read by mysql-test.
See comments in added files (have_dbi_dbd-mysql.inc and checkDBI_DBD-mysql.pl) for details.
The patch also removes the mysqlhotcopy tests from the list of disabled tests.

Do as mysqld_safe: if running mysqld-debug, plugins are in debug subdirs
NB mtr --debug won't work in this context until 47141 is fixed
Also moved read_plugin_defs; no point running this in all worker threads

In SBR, if a statement does not fail, it is always written to the binary
log, regardless if rows are changed or not. If there is a failure, a
statement is only written to the binary log if a non-transactional (.e.g.
MyIsam) engine is updated.

INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE and INSERT IGNORE were not following the
rule above and were not written to the binary log, if then engine was
Innodb.
