Relevant if exists flag are added for create database and drop database.

Create a new constant MAX_DATA_LENGTH_FOR_KEY.
Replace the value of MAX_KEY_LENGTH to also include the LENGTH and NULL BYTES
of a field.

Workaround glibc bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20116
by making unittest threads joinable. It makes code better anyway.

This reverts part of c5427172

with InnoDB, joins, AND/OR conditions

The inited parameter handler is not initialised when we do a quick_select after a table scan.

Forbid ALTER DATABASE under read_only.

This is a backport of a part of
commit 18455ec3
from 10.1.

Problem:

  Innodb_checksum_algorithm checks for all checksum algorithm to
validate the page checksum even though the algorithm is specified as
strict_crc32, strict_innodb, strict_none.

Fix:

   Remove the checks for all checksum algorithm to validate the page
checksum if the algo is specified as strict_* values.

Current implementation is conflicting. If UNICODE is defined, FormatMessage() will be FormatMessageW(), and variable win_errormsg with type char can not be passed to it, which should be changed to TCHAR instead. Since we don't use UNICODE here, we can use FormatMessageA() directly to avoid conversion error.
```
my_global.h(1092): error C2664: 'DWORD FormatMessageW(D
WORD,LPCVOID,DWORD,DWORD,LPWSTR,DWORD,va_list *)' : cannot convert argument 5 from 'char [2048]' to 'LPWSTR'
```

ha_innobase::prepare_inplace_alter_table(): check max column length for every
index in a table, not just added in this particular ALTER TABLE with ADD INDEX ones.

The problem here is EITS statistics does not calculate statistics for the partitions of the table.
So a temporary solution would be to not read EITS statistics for partitioned tables.

Also disabling reading of EITS for columns that participate in the partition list of a table.

create_table_def(), ha_innobase::create(): Defer fts_optimize_add_table()
until after the table has been successfully created.

merge_role_db_privileges() was remembering pointers into Dynamic_array
acl_dbs, and later was using them, while pushing more elements into the
array. But pushing can cause realloc, and it can invalidate all pointers.

Fix: remember and use indexes of elements, not pointers.

In this case we were trying to access memory for key_parts which we did not
assign for a fields because it did not any EITS statistics.
The check if EITS statistics for a column is avaialable or not was missing.

Closes #3

The fix for "MDEV-17698 MEMORY engine performance regression"
previously fixed this problem.

- Adding the test for MDEV-17724
- Re-recording wrong results for tests:
  * engines/iuds/r/insert_number
  * engines/iuds/r/update_delete_number
  which started to fail since MDEV-17698

Also, backporting a part of:
  MDEV-11485 Split Item_func_between::val_int() into virtual methods in Type_handler
for easier merge to 10.3.

MDEV-11167: InnoDB: Warning: using a partial-field key prefix in search, results in assertion failure or "Can't find record" error

Fix ha_rnd_init() argument (we do not doing scan but use rnd_pos)

The relevant InnoDB/XtraDB fixes up to 5.6.42 had already
been applied to MariaDB in commit 30c3d6db.

Revert some changes that appeared in
the merge commit 87d852f1.

Problem affects INPLACE ALTER rename columns.

innobase_rename_column_try(): some strcmp() was replaced with my_strcasecmp(),
queries to update data dictionary was updated to not match column name case.

my_read fixed as in higher versions.
my_pread made as my_read aware of partial read of huge chunks of files
MY_FULL_IO enabled for file operations

followup for c32f7ed2

reset lex->many_values for LOAD DATA, as it's used for
auto-inc range size estimation.

For index merge union[or sort union], the estimates are not taken into account while calculating the selectivity of
a condition. So instead of showing the estimates of the index merge union[or sort union], it shows estimates equal to
all the records of the table.
The fix for the issue is to include the selectivity of index merge
union[or sort union] while calculating the selectivity of a condition.
