Fix for bug #28464: a string argument to 'limit ?' PS - replication fails

Problem: we may get syntactically incorrect queries in the binary log 
if we use a string value user variable executing a PS which 
contains '... limit ?' clause, e.g.
prepare s from "select 1 limit ?"; 
set @A='qwe'; execute s using @A;
  
Fix: raise an error in such cases.
