This was done to have Item::set_maybe_null() as an inline function

This is not enabled by default, as there are leaks in the
server that needs to be fixed first. One can compile
with -DUSE_MYSYS_NEW to find the memory leaks from
'new'. More comments can be found in mysys/my_new.cc

When a server is compiled with -fPIE, my_addr_resolve needs to subtract the info.dli_fbase from symbol addresses in memory for addr2line to recognize them.
When a server is compiled without -fPIE, my_addr_resolve should not do it.
Unfortunately not all compilers define __PIE__ when -fPIE was used
(e.g. older gcc doesn't), so we have to resort to run-time detection.

Before memory leaks was only reported if server stopped normally.
This made it harder to find out where the leaks happened when
debugging test cases.

The problem was that when one used String::alloc() to allocate a string,
the String ensures that there is space for an extra NULL byte in the
buffer and if not, reallocates the string. This is a problem with the
String::set_int() that calls alloc(21), which forces extra
malloc/free calls to happen.

- We do not anymore re-allocate String if alloc() is called with the
  Allocated_length. This reduces number of malloc() allocations,
  especially one big re-allocation in Protocol::send_result_Set_metadata()
  for almost every query that produced a result to the connnected client.
- Avoid extra mallocs when using LONGLONG_BUFFER_SIZE
  This can now be done as alloc() doesn't increase buffers if new length is
  not bigger than old one.
- c_ptr() is redesigned to be safer (but a bit longer) than before.
- Remove wrong usage of c_ptr_quick()
  c_ptr_quick() was used in many cases to get the pointer to the used
  buffer, even when it didn't need to be \0 terminated. In this case
  ptr() is a better substitute.
  Another problem with c_ptr_quick() is that it did not guarantee that
  the string would be \0 terminated.
- item_val_str(), an API function not used currently by the server,
  now always returns a null terminated string (before it didn't always
  do that).
- Ensure that all String allocations uses STRING_PSI_MEMORY_KEY. The old
  mixed usage of performance keys caused assert's when String buffers
  where shrunk.
- Binary_string::shrink() is simplifed
- Fixed bug in String(const char *str, size_t len, CHARSET_INFO *cs) that
  used Binary_string((char *) str, len) instead of Binary_string(str,len).
- Changed argument to String() creations and String.set() functions to use
  'const char*' instead of 'char*'. This ensures that Alloced_length is
  not set, which gives safety against someone trying to change the
  original string. This also would allow us to use !Alloced_length in
  c_ptr() if needed.
- Changed string_ptr_cmp() to use memcmp() instead of c_ptr() to avoid
  a possible malloc during string comparision.

- Remove 'dummy_for_valgrind' overrun marker as this doesn't help much.
  The element also distorts the sizes of objects a bit, which makes it
  harder to calculate gain in object sizes when doing size optimizations.
- Replace usage of thd_get_current_thd() with _current_thd()
- Avoid one extra call indirection when using thd_get_current_thd(), which
  is used by Sql_alloc, by replacing it with _current_thd()

- Changed order of class fields to remove dead alignment space.
- Changed bool fields in Item to bit fields.
- Used packed enum's for some fields in common classes
- Removed not used Item::rsize.
- Changed some class variables from uint/int to smaller type int's.
- Ensured that field_index is uint16 in all classes and functions. Fixed
  also that we proparly compare with NO_CACHED_FIELD_INDEX when checking
  if variable is not set.
- Removed checking of highest bit of unireg_check (has not been used in
  a long time)
- Fixed wrong arguments to make_cond_for_table() for join_tab_idx_arg
  from false to 0.

One of the result was reducing the size if class Item with ~24 bytes

LEX, st_select_lex, st_select_unit optimized for space:
- Use bit fields for bool variables
- Ensure that all bit fields are initialized (improves
  performance for init functions as all bit fields can be
  initalized with one memory access)
- Move members around in above structures to remove alignment
  gaps

Some savings:
LEX: 7032 -> 6880
THD: 25608 -> 25456
st_select_lex_unit: 2048 -> 2008

LEX::start():                    1321 -> 1245 instructions
st_select_lex_unit::init_query()  284 ->  214 instructions
st_select_lex::init_query():      766 ->  692 instructions
st_select_lex::init_select():     563 ->  540 instructions

Other things:
- Removed not used LEX::select_allow_into
- Fixed MDEV-25510 Assertion `sel->select_lock ==
   st_select_lex::select_lock_type::NONE' which was caused by this commit.

aspects of decimals and integers

For fields and Item's uint8 should be good enough. After
discussions with Alexander Barkov we choose uint16 (for now)
as some format functions may accept +256 digits.

The reason for this patch was to make the usage and storage of decimal
digits simlar. Before this patch decimals was stored/used as uint8,
int and uint.  The lengths for numbers where also using a lot of
different types.

Changed most decimal variables and functions to use the new typedef.

squash! af7f09106b6c1dc20ae8c480bff6fd22d266b184

Use decimal_digits_t for all aspects of digits (total, precision
and scale), both for decimals and integers.

The following changes where done:
- Create global Item: Item_false and Item_true
- Replace all creation if 'FALSE' and 'TRUE' top level items used for
  WHERE/HAVING/ON clauses to use Item_false and Item_true.

The benefit are:
- Less and faster code
- No test needed if we where able to create the new item.
- Fixed possible errors if 'new' would have failed for the Item_bool's

The --help comment for the --base64-output option in
mysqlbinlog was hard to decipher. This quick patch aims
to refine it.

innodb_drop_database_fk(): Use the correct length when comparing.
Fix a debug assertion in previously unreachable code.
This error was caught by MSAN.

innodb_drop_database(): Correct the SQL for traversing SYS_FOREIGN.
The incorrect code would cause orphan FOREIGN KEY entries to be
left behind in the test innodb.alter_foreign_crash.

This patch changes the main name of 3 byte character set from utf8 to
utf8mb3. New old_mode UTF8_IS_UTF8MB3 is added and set TRUE by default,
so that utf8 would mean utf8mb3. If not set, utf8 would mean utf8mb4.

The implementation of handlerton::drop_database in InnoDB is
unnecessarily complex. The minimal implementation should check
that no conflicting locks or references exist on the tables,
delete all table metadata in a single transaction, and finally
delete the tablespaces.

Note: DROP DATABASE will delete each individual table that the
SQL layer knows about, one table per transaction.
The handlerton::drop_database is basically a final cleanup step
for removing any garbage that could have been left behind
in InnoDB due to some bug, or not having atomic DDL in the past.

hash_node_t: Remove. Use the proper data type name in pointers.

dict_drop_index_tree(): Do not take the table as a parameter.
Instead, return the tablespace ID if the tablespace should be dropped
(we are dropping a clustered index tree).

fil_delete_tablespace(), fil_system_t::detach(): Return a single
detached file handle. Multi-file tablespaces cannot be deleted
via this interface.

ha_innobase::delete_table(): Remove a work-around for non-atomic DDL
and do not try to drop tables with similar-looking name.

innodb_drop_database(): Complete rewrite.

innobase_drop_database(), dict_get_first_table_name_in_db(),
row_drop_database_for_mysql(), drop_all_foreign_keys_in_db(): Remove.

row_purge_remove_clust_if_poss_low(), row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec():
If the tablespace is to be deleted, try to evict the table definition
from the cache. Failing that, set dict_table_t::space to nullptr.

lock_release_on_rollback(): On the rollback of CREATE TABLE, release all
locks that the transaction had on the table, to avoid heap-use-after-free.

The functions fil_file_readdir_next_file(), os_file_opendir(),
os_file_closedir() became dead code in the server in MariaDB 10.4.0
with commit 09af00cb (the removal of
the crash recovery logic for the TRUNCATE TABLE implementation that
was replaced in MDEV-13564).

os_file_opendir(), os_file_closedir(): Define as macros.

trx_t::will_lock: Changed the type to bool.

trx_t::is_autocommit_non_locking(): Replaces
trx_is_autocommit_non_locking().

trx_is_ac_nl_ro(): Remove (replaced with equivalent assertion expressions).

assert_trx_nonlocking_or_in_list(): Remove.
Replaced with at least as strict checks in each place.

check_trx_state(): Moved to a static function; partially replaced with
individual debug assertions implementing equivalent or stricter checks.

ha_innobase::index_read(): If an autocommit non-locking transaction was
already started, refuse to access a SPATIAL INDEX.
Once a non-locking autocommit transaction has started, it must remain
in that mode (not acquire any locks).

This should fix one cause of the assertion failure that would occur in
DeadlockChecker::check_and_resolve() under heavy load, presumably
due to concurrent execution of trx_commit_in_memory().

Problem:
=======
The ALWAYS option of the mariadb-binlog --base64-output flag

 Previous Behavior: Sets base64-output mode to always
 New Behavior: Error message indicating incomplete argument

Fixed bugs caused by inaccuracies in automatic merging
from other branches:

1) Authentication information is not removed from the connection
   address, which causes some tests to fail;
2) wsrep_debug=on should be replaced with wsrep_debug=1;
3) Added missing "connection" lines to test result file;
4) Some tests have been corrected for Galera 4.x (10.4+).

1) This commit implements reading all sections from configuration
files while looking for the current value of any server variable,
which were previously only read from the [mysqld.suffix] group and
from [mysqld], but not from other groups such as [mariadb.suffix],
[mariadb] or, for example, [server].

2) This commit also fixes misrecognition of some parameters when
parsing a command line containing a special marker for the end
of the list of options ("--") or when short option names (such
as "-s", "-a" and "-h arg") chained together (like a "-sah arg").
Such parameters can be passed to the SST script in the list of
arguments after "--mysqld-args" if the server is started with a
complex set of options - this was revealed during manual testing
of changes to read configuration files.

3) The server-side preparation code for the "--mysqld-args"
option list has also been simplified to make it easier to change
in the future (if needed), and has been improved to properly
handle the special backquote ("`") character in the argument
values.

This commit contains a large set of further bug fixes and
improvements to SST scripts for Galera, continuing the work
that was started in MDEV-24962 to make SST scripts work smoothly
in different network configurations (especially using ipv6) and
with different environment settings:

 1) The ipv6 addresses were incorrectly handled in the SST script
    for rsync (incorrect address substitution for establishing a
    connection, incorrect address substitution for bind, and so on);
 2) Checking the locality of the ip-address in SST scripts did not
    support ipv6 addresses (such as "[::1]"), which were falsely
    identified as non-local ip, which further did not allow running
    two SSTs on different local addresses on the same machine.
    On the other hand, this bug masked some other errors (related
    to handling ipv6 addresses);
 3) The code for checking the locality of the ip address was different
    in the SST scripts for rsync and for mysqldump, with individual
    flaws. This code is now made common and moved to wsrep_sst_common;
 4) Waiting for the start of the transport channel (socat, nc, rsync,
    stunnel) in the wait_for_listen() and check_pid_and_port() functions
    did not process ipv6 addresses correctly in all cases (not for all
    branches);
 5) Waiting for the start of the transport channel (socat, nc, rsync,
    stunnel) in the wait_for_listen() and check_pid_and_port() functions
    for some code branches could give a false positive result due to
    the textual match of prefixes in the port number and/or PID of
    the process;
 6) Waiting for the start of the transport channel (socat, nc, rsync,
    stunnel) was supported through different utilities in SST scripts
    for mariabackup and for rsync, and with various minor flaws in
    the code. Now the code is still different in these scripts, but
    it supports a common set of utilities (lsof, ss, sockstat) and
    is synchronized across patterns that used to check the output
    of  these utilities;
 7) In SST via mariabackup, the signal about readiness to receive data
    is sometimes sent too early - immediately after listen(), and not
    after accept() (which are called by socat or netcat utility).
 8) Checking availability of the some options of some utilities was
    done using the grep pattern, which easily gives false positives;
 9) Common name (CN) for local addresses, if not explicitly specified,
    is now always replaced to "localhost" to avoid the need to generate
    many separate certificates for local addresses of one machine and
    not to depend on which the local address is currently used in test
    (ipv4 or ipv6, etc.);
10) In tests galera_sst_mariabackup_encrypt_with_key_server and
    galera_sst_rsync_encrypt_with_key_server the correct certificate
    is selected to avoid commonname (CN) mismatch problems;
11) Further refactoring to protect against spaces in file names.
12) Further general refactoring to eliminate bash-specific constructs
    or to improve code readability;
13) The code for setting options for the nc (netcat) utility was
    different in different scripts for SST - now it is made identical.
14) Fixed long-time broken encryption via xbcrypt in combination with
    mariabackup and added support for key-based encryption via openssl
    utility, which is now enabled by default for encrypt=1 mode (this
    default mode can be changed using a new configuration file option
    "encypt-format=openssl|xbcrypt", which can be placed in the [mysqld],
