Bug #19147: mysqlshow INFORMATION_SCHEMA does not work

  When a wildcard database name is given the mysqlshow, but that wildcard
  matches one database *exactly* (it contains the wildcard character), we
  list the contents of that database instead of just listing the database
  name as matching the wildcard. Probably the most common instance of users
  encountering this behavior would be with "mysqlshow information_schema".
