BUG#22645 - LC_TIME_NAMES: Statement not replicated

This patch is an additional code change to the get_str_len_and_pointer 
method in log_events.cc. This change is necessary to correct a problem
encountered on 64-bit SUSE where the auto_increment_* variables were
being overwritten. The change corrects a cast mismatch which caused
the problem.

  BUG#22645 - LC_TIME_NAMES: Statement not replicated
  This patch is an additional code change to the get_str_len_and_pointer,
  copy_str_and_move methods and the Query_leg_event constructor to 
  correct a type mismatch encountered during testing on SUSE 64-bit. The patch changes
  the data type of the buffer variables was changed to a new typedef 
  defined in the Log_event class. The new type is:
  
  typedef unsigned char Byte; 
  
  The variables changed include:
  
  pos, start, end, and data_buf
sql/log_event.h:
  This patch adds a new type definition to the Log_event class. The new
  type is typedef unsigned char Byte. It is used in place of the uchar
  and usigned char definitions in the Query_log_event constructor to 
  eliminate type conversion problems encountere on SUSE 64-bit.
