Bug#41110: crash with handler command when used concurrently with alter table

Bug#41112: crash in mysql_ha_close_table/get_lock_data with alter table

The problem is that the server wasn't handling robustly failures
to re-open a table during a HANDLER .. READ statement. If the
table needed to be re-opened due to it's storage engine being
altered to one that doesn't support HANDLER, a reference (dangling
pointer) to a closed table could be left in place and accessed in
later attempts to fetch from the table using the handler. Also,
if the server failed to set a error message if the re-open
failed. These problems could lead to server crashes or hangs.

The solution is to remove any references to a closed table and
to set a error if reopening a table during a HANDLER .. READ
statement fails.
