A follow up after the fix for Bug#21074 - fix NDB tests breaking on

asserts.
The patch for Bug#21074 replaces acquisition of the global LOCK_open lock
with exclusive locks on table names in such operations ad DROP TABLE
and RENAME TABLE.
Unfortunately, NDB internally assumes that LOCK_open is acquired and
tries to release it.
This dependency should be fixed by a separate (and significant in size)
patch. For now we just satisfy it - after all, the original
goal of the patch for Bug#21074 was to move query_cache_invalidate
outside of the scope of LOCK_open, and we still can do that.

This fixes some failing NDB tests in the runtime tree.

An exclusive lock on table names is satisfactory to ensure
no other thread accesses this table.
However, NDB assumes that handler::rename_tables is called under
LOCK_open. And it indeed is, from ALTER TABLE.
TODO: remove this limitation.
We still should unlock LOCK_open as early as possible, to provide
higher concurrency - query_cache_invalidate can take minutes to
complete.
