MDEV-7906: InnoDB: Failing assertion: prebuilt->sql_stat_start || trx->state == 1 on concurrent multi-table update

Analysis: Problem is that SQL-layer calls handler API after storage
engine has already returned error state. InnoDB does internal
rollback when it notices transaction error (e.g. lock wait timeout,
deadlock, etc.) and after this transaction is not naturally in
correct state to continue.

Fix: Do not continue fetch operations if transaction is not started.

change the test case to be deterministic
(while still sufficient to test a bug)

jessie has newer automake so build-depends could not be satisfied.

refresh build-depends, remove automake, libtool,
doxygen, texlive-latex-base, ghostscript.

create a separate list of views to repair, and repair them
in a separate loop.

remove the code that checks for correct options for
for CHECK/REPAIR VIEW. Rewrite the grammar for the parser
to check that. This changes error messages as

-ERROR 42000: You have an error ... near '' at line 1
+ERROR 42000: You have an error ... near 'quick' at line 1

don't include #include directives into .pp files

Fixes MDEV-7658: MDEV-7026 fix reintroduces MDEV-6615 on AArch64

This is an addendum to the fix for MDEV-7026. The ARM memory model is
similar to that of PowerPC and thus needs the same semantics with
respect to memory barriers. That is, os_atomic_test_and_set_*_release()
must be a store with a release barrier followed by a full
barrier. Unlike x86 using __sync_lock_test_and_set() which is
implemented as “exclusive load with acquire barriers + exclusive store”
is insufficient in contexts where os_atomic_test_and_set_*_release()
macros are used.

Do not use format function attribute for sql_print_xxx() family of
functions as they use a MariaDB-specific extension of printf instead
of one provided by the system.

On Windows, the files get checked out with CRLF thanks
to .gitattributes.

on REPAIR don't do table-specific stuff for views
(because even if the view has a temp table opened for it,
it's not opened all the way down the engine. In particular,
Aria crashes in maria_status() because MARIA_HA* info - that is
table->table->file->file - is NULL)

MDEV-7987 Fatal error: Please read "Security" section of the manual to find out how to run mysqld as root!

update the error message to refer to the knowledge base
that (now) has an article about this use case

        Fixed by using POINT instead of ST_POINT in the item.
        Later need to fix that with proper ST_POINT implementation

Fixed by reverting incorrect fix of MDEC-7055 (reopened) and removing the
test case (because it now crashes).

Fixed overflow error that caused fewer bites to be allocated than
necessary on Windows 64 bit. This is due to ulong being 32 bit on
64 bit Windows and 64 bit on 64 bit Linux.

on disconnect THD must clean user_var_events array before
dropping temporary tables. Otherwise when binlogging a DROP,
it'll access user_var_events, but they were allocated
in the already freed memroot.
