on PPC/Debian Linux default stack size for a thread is too big.
As we use default thread settings in mysqltest, the
thread creation fails if we create lots of threads (as it
happens in flush.test). So now stack size is explicitly specified
for the mysqltest

Changed SHOW ENGINES to work in the same way as I_S.ENGINES.
For this: removed the functions mysqld_show_storage_engines and show_handlerton, and
made SHOW ENGINES work via the common function iter_schema_engines.
There in no test case because an engine (except of MyISAM) may be not compiled or disabled
which may affect the test result.

ORDER BY and LIMIT 1. 
The bug was introduced by the patch for bug 21727. The patch
erroneously skipped initialization of the array of headers
for sorted records for non-first evaluations of the subquery.

To fix the problem a new parameter has been added to the
function make_char_array that performs the initialization.
Now this function is called for any invocation of the 
filesort procedure. Yet it allocates the buffer for sorted
records only if this parameter is NULL.

This bug was introduced by the fix for the bug#27300. In this fix a section
of code was added to the Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method.
This section intended to create Field_geom fields for the Item_geometry_func
class and its descendants. In order to get the geometry type of the current
item it casted "this" to the Item_geometry_func* type. But the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method is also used for creation of
fields for UNION and in this case this method is called for an object of the
Item_type_holder class and the cast to the Item_geometry_func* type causes 
a server crash.

Now the Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method correctly works when it's
called for both the Item_type_holder and the Item_geometry_func classes.
The new geometry_type variable is added to the Item_type_holder class.
The new method called get_geometry_type is added to the Item_field
and the Field classes. It returns geometry type from the field for the
Item_field and the Field_geom classes and fails an assert for other Field
descendants.

If we have lower_case_table_names == 2 (usually on case insensitive file
systems) we sometimes make 'homedir' part of the path sent to the
handler into lowercase. So in this case HEAP engine couldn't properly
find and remove HP_SHARE, what caused the bug.

a temporary table has grown out of heap memory reserved for it and 
the remaining disk space is not big enough to store the table as
a MyISAM table.

The crash happens because the function create_myisam_from_heap
does not handle safely the mem_root structure associated 
with the converted table in the case when an error has occurred.

wrong result for DML
When making key reference buffers over CHAR fields whitespace (0x20) 
must be used to fill in the remaining space in the field's buffer.
This is what Field_string::store() does.
Fixed Field_string::get_key_image() to do the same.

flag is set.

When the CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS flag is set then the server should return
found number of rows independently whether they were updated or not.
But this wasn't the case for the INSERT statement which always returned
number of rows that were actually changed thus providing wrong info to
the user.

Now the select_insert::send_eof method and the mysql_insert function
are sending the number of touched rows if the CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS flag is set.

integer constants.

This bug is introduced by the fix for bug#16377. Before the fix the 
Item_func_between::fix_length_and_dec method converted the second and third
arguments to the type of the first argument if they were constant and the first
argument is of the DATE/DATETIME type. That approach worked well for integer
constants and sometimes produced bad result for string constants. The fix for
the bug#16377 wrongly removed that code at all and as a result of this the
comparison of a DATETIME field and an integer constant was carried out in a
wrong way and sometimes led to wrong result sets.

Now the Item_func_between::fix_length_and_dec method converts the second and
third arguments to the type of the first argument if they are constant, the
first argument is of the DATE/DATETIME type and the DATETIME comparator isn't
applicable.

While executing ALTER TABLE ... PARTITION the server uses 
a temporary "shadow" table to create the updated table.
This shadow table then gets renamed as the original table.
The shadow table was not prefixed with the special prefix that
marks temporary tables so it was picked up by SHOW TABLE STATUS.
Fixed by isolating the code to create the shadow table name in a
separate function and prefixing the shadow table name with the
special prefix to exclude it from the list of user tables.
See bug 18775 and WL1324 for details.
