new static archive_inited variable, so that archive_db_end() will do something only if archive_db_init() was run before
(protection against destroying uninited mutex in the case where mysqld fails early at startup (before archive_db_init() was called)
and then calls archive_db_end() to clean up).

binlog-do-db or binlog-ignore-db are in effect.   (In the future 5.1? 5.0? I think

it *uses* and not the *current* one.  But, right now the *current* database is what 
counts according to the semantics of the manual.)
