The loop that was looping over subqueries' references to outer field used a
local boolean variable to tell whether the field was grouped or not. But the
implementor failed to reset the variable after each iteration. Thus a field
that was not directly aggregated appeared to be.

Fixed by resetting the variable upon each new iteration.

Problem: ucs2 was correctly disallowed in "SET NAMES" only,
while mysql_real_connect() and mysql_change_user() still allowed
to use ucs2, which made server crash.

Fix: disallow ucs2 in mysql_real_connect() and mysql_change_user().

Problem:
  IF() did not copy collation derivation and repertoire from
  an argument if the opposite argument was NULL:
    IF(cond, res1, NULL)
    IF(cond, NULL, res2)
  only CHARSET_INFO pointer was copied.
  This resulted in illegal mix of collations error.

Fix:
  copy all collation parameters from the non-NULL argument:
  CHARSET_INFO pointer, derivation, repertoire.

          memory reference

There are two issues present here.
  1) There is a possibility that we test a byte beyond the
     allocated buffer

  2) We compare a byte that might never have been
     initalized to see if it's 0.

The first issue is not triggered by existing code, but an
ASSERT has been added to safe-guard against introducing
new code that triggers it.

The second issue is what triggers the Valgrind warnings
reported in the bug report. A buffer is allocated in
class String to hold the value. This buffer is populated
by the character data constituting the string, but is not
zero-terminated in most cases.  Testing if it is indeed
zero-terminated means that we check a byte that has never
been explicitly set, thus causing Valgrind to trigger.

Note that issue 2 is not a serious problem.  The variable
is read, and if it's not zero, we will set it to zero.
There are no further consequences.

Note that this patch does not fix the underlying problems
with issue 1, as it is deemed too risky to fix at this
point (as noted in the bug report).  As discussed in
the report, the c_ptr() method should probably be
replaced, but this requires a thorough analysis of the
~200 calls to the method.

Assertion `bitmap_is_set_all(&table->s->all_set)' failed in
handler::ha_reset

This assertion could be triggered if two connections simultaneously
executed two bitmap test functions on the same bitmap. For example,
the assertion could be triggered if one connection executed UPDATE
while a second connection executed SELECT on the same table.

Even if bitmap test functions have read-only semantics and have
const bitmaps as parameter, several of them modified the internal
state of the bitmap. With interleaved execution of two such functions
it was possible for one function to modify the state of the same
bitmap that the other function had just modified. This lead to an
inconsistent state and could trigger the assert.

Internally the bitmap uses 32 bit words for storage. Since bitmaps
can contain any number of bits, the last word in the bitmap may
not be fully used. A 32 bit mask is maintained where a bit is set
if the corresponding bit in the last bitmap word is unused.
The problem was that several test functions applied this mask to
the last word. Sometimes the mask was negated and used to zero out
the remainder of the last word and sometimes the mask was used as-is
to fill the remainder of the last word with 1's. This meant that if
a function first used the negated mask and another function then
used the mask as-is (or vice-versa), the first function would then
get the wrong result.

This patch fixes the problem by changing the implementation of
9 bitmap functions that modified the bitmap state even if the 
bitmap was declared const. These functions now preserve the
internal state of the bitmap. This makes it possible for
two connections to concurrently execute two of these functions
on the same bitmap without issues.

The patch also removes dead testing code from my_bitmap.c.
These tests have already been moved to unittest/mysys/bitmap-t.c.
Existing test coverage of my_bitmap has been extended.

No MTR test case added as this would require adding several sync
points to the bitmap functions. The patch has been tested with
a non-deterministic test case posted on the bug report.

attempt to create spatial index on char > 31 bytes".

Attempt to create spatial index on char field with length
greater than 31 byte led to assertion failure on server
compiled with safemutex support.

The problem occurred in mi_create() function which was called
to create a new version of table being altered. This function
failed since it detected an attempt to create a spatial key
on non-binary column and tried to return an error.
On its error path it tried to unlock THR_LOCK_myisam mutex
which has not been not locked at this point. Indeed such an
incorrect behavior was caught by safemutex wrapper and caused
assertion failure.

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that mi_create()
doesn't releases THR_LOCK_myisam mutex on error path if it was
not acquired.
