Fixed a syntax error in mysqld_multi.sh

The problem is that cond->fix_fields(thd, 0) breaks
condition(cuts off 'having'). The reason of that is
that NULL valued Item pointer is present in the
middle of Item list and it breaks the Item processing
loop.

performance degradation.

Filesort + join cache combination is preferred to full index scan because it
is usually faster. But it's not the case when the index is clustered one.

Now test_if_skip_sort_order function prefers filesort only if index isn't
clustered.

branches/5.1: Fix bug #50691, AIX implementation of readdir_r
causes InnoDB errors. readdir_r() returns an non-NULL value
in the case of reaching the end of a directory. It should
not be treated as an error return.

branches/5.1: Fix Bug #38901
InnoDB logs error repeatedly when trying to load page into buffer pool

In buf_page_get_gen() if we are unable to read a page (because of
corruption or some other reason) we keep on retrying. This fills up
error log with millions of entries in no time and we'd eventually run
out of disk space. This patch limits the number of attempts that we
make (currently set to 100) and after that we abort with a message.

branches/5.1: Undo the change from r6424. We need to return DB_SUCCESS even
if we were unable to initialize the tabe autoinc value. This is required for
the open to succeed. The only condition we currently treat as a hard error
is if the autoinc field instance passed in by MySQL is NULL.

Previously if the table autoinc value was 0 and the next value was requested
we had an assertion that would fail. Change that assertion and treat a value
of 0 to mean that the autoinc system is unavailable. Generation of next
value will now return failure.

This change fixes test failure for partition_repair_myisam
and partition_recover_myisam.

The problem was that:
- the file std_data/corrupt_crash.MYI
  contains charsetnr=63 (binary) for index segments.
- the new .frm file contains charsetnr=8 (latin1) for
  the same segments.
As a result REPAIR refused to repair frm+MYI files
with different segment definition.

This fix restores the old behavior for frm and MYI files:
they now store charsetnr=63 for numeric/datetime data types.
