This patch fixes one compilation error related to __db_lsn struct. The
struct can not be defined as empty according to the main C standard.
In C++, this is handled by forcing a size of 1. To eliminate the error
we add a dummy char field of size 1. This has no effect on the C++
compiled code, but also removes the compiler error.

MDEV-7655 SHOW CREATE TABLE returns invalid DDL when using virtual columns along with a table collation

that was mistakenly merged from mysql-5.5.47

(introduces valgrind failures in main.sp, because Field_varstring
columns are created as FIELD_NORMAL and that causes aria to
read bytes between the actual value length and field max length)

that was mistakenly merged from mysql-5.5.47

while according to Storage Engine API column names should be compared
case insensitively. This can cause FRM and InnoDB data dictionary to
go out of sync.

In fact it was error in decimal library (incorrect processing of buffer overflow) invisible from other server parts because of buffer allocation and precision tests.

The License field in the MariaDB RPM packages is GPL. This does not tell
the version of GPL and might confuse tools and users that rely on this
field.

Best practice in the RPM world is to use "GPLv2" for the GPL 2.0
license.

The commit switches the license field of the RPM packages to GPLv2.

5.5.46-37.6

Removed unused variable.

MDEV-8825 mysql_upgrade leaks the admin password when it spawns a shell process to execute mysqlcheck

don't put common arguments on the command-line,
use a config file instead

Reimplement ssl_verify_server_cert() using the logic
from https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Hostname_validation

The bug was discovered by Alex Gaynor.

first close all tables, then unload UDFs

thd->cleanup_after_query() is needed to destroy all Items
created for this query (and Item destructors free allocated
Strings).

set keep_row_order=true for temporary tables that
hold results of the SHOW command

5.5 patch only

use --mysqld instead of naming all groups explicitly

Don't let network errors from mysql_close() leak into THD.

* remove incorrect upstream fix
** table->in_use can be NULL, must use ha_thd()
** clear_error() may remove earlier errors, don't use it
* fix the bug properly in federated and federatedx

* reduce code duplication
* change int->void for the function that doesn't return an error
* use ha_thd()

fix innodb auto-increment handling
three bugs:
1. innobase_next_autoinc treated the case of current<offset incorrectly
2. ha_innobase::get_auto_increment didn't recalculate current when increment changed
3. ha_innobase::get_auto_increment didn't pass offset down to innobase_next_autoinc

debian/additions/my.cnf sets slow_query_log_file to
/var/log/mysql/mariadb-slow.log.

Update the filename to rotate the slow log file.

Incorrect array lenght for comma buffer.

Analysis: There were two problems. (1) if partition table was
created using lower_case_tables = 1 on windows we did find the
correct table but we did not set share->ib_table correctly.
(2) we did open table on dictionary but did not increase
mysql_open_tables.

Fix: In xtradb allow access to tables with incorrect
lower case names (warning is printed to error log). If
table is opened increase mysql_open_tables count to avoid
crash on flush tables.

Item_func_coalesce::fix_length_and_dec() calls
Item_func::count_string_result_length()) which called agg_arg_charsets()
with wrong flags, so the collation derivation of the COALESCE result was
not properly set to DERIVATION_COERCIBLE. It erroneously stayed
DERIVATION_NUMERIC. So GREATEST() misinterpreted the argument as
a number rather that a string and did not calculate its own length properly.

mysqldump --routine fails to dump databases containing backslash ("\")
character. This happened because escaped database name was being used as an
identifier while changing current database. Such identifers are not supposed
to be escaped, they must be properly quoted instead.

Analysis: debug only assertion I_S function (IS is XtraDB feature) is calling
buf_block_get_frame on any page it reads, which debug-asserts that the page is
buffer-fixed, which is not the case in I_S query.

Fixed by holding the buffer page mutex while the fields are read directly.

Non-select-like queries has no correct JOIN structure connected to top-most SELECT_LEX (and should not).

feedback plugin needs to set tables->select_lex properly
