Fix for BUG#51716 and BUG#51787.
In BUG#51787 we were using the wrong charset to print out the data. We were using the field charset for the string that would hold the information. This caused the assertion, because the string length was not aligned with UTF32 bytes requirements for storage. We fix this by using &my_charset_latin1 in the string object instead of the field->charset(). As a side-effect, we needed to extend the show_sql_type interface so that it took the field charset is now passed as a parameter, so that one is able to calculate the correct field size. In BUG#51716 we had issues with Field_string::pack and Field_string::unpack. When packing, the length was incorrectly calculated. When unpacking, the padding the string would be padded with the wrong bytes (a few bytes less than it should). We fix this by resorting to charset abstractions (functions) that calculate the correct length when packing and pad correctly the string when unpacking.
