The reason for the bug is that mysqtest as well as other client tools
running in test suite (mysqlbinlog, mysqldump) will first try to connect 
whatever database has created shared memory with default base name 
"MySQL" and use this. (Same effect could be seen on Unix if mtr would
not care to calculate "port" and "socket" parameter).
      
The fix ensures that all client tools and  running in mtr use unique  
per-database shared memory base parameters, so there is no possibility
to clash with already installed one. We use socket name for shared memory 
base (it's known to be unique). This shared-memory-base is written to the
MTR config file to the [client] and [mysqld] sections. Fix made also made 
sure all client tools understand and correctly handle --shared-memory-base.
Prior to this patch  it was not the case for  mysqltest, mysqlbinlog and 
mysql_client_test.
      
All new connections done from mtr scripts via connect() will by default 
set shared-memory-base. And finally, there is a possibility to force 
shared memory or pipe connection and overwrite shared memory/pipe base name
from within mtr scripts via optional PIPE or SHM modifier. This functionality
was manually backported from 6.0

Bug#31621: Windows server hanging during shutdown using named pipes 
           and idle connection
            
Problem: when idle pipe connection is forcefully closed with KILL
statement or when the server goes down, thread that is closing connection
would hang infinitely in CloseHandle(). The reason for the hang is that 
named pipe operations are performed synchronously. In this mode all IOs
on pipe are serialized, that is CloseHandle() will not abort ReadFile() 
in another thread, but wait for ReadFile() to complete.
            
The fix implements asynchrnous mode for named pipes, where operation of file
are not synchronized. Read/Write operation would fire an async IO and wait for
either IO completion or timeout.
            
Note, that with this patch timeouts are properly handled for named pipes.
      
Post-review: Win32 timeout code has been fixed for named pipes and shared
memory. We do not store pointer to NET in vio structure, only the read and 
write timeouts.

instead of making it experimental.

Remove the extra line which try to use the name INNOBASE again. The IF ELSE
loop above declares the library name based on the version of mysql

                     grants are reapplied.


After renaming a user and trying to re-apply grants results in additional
grants.

This is because we use username as part of the key for GRANT_TABLE structure.
When the user is renamed, we only change the username stored and the hash key
still contains the old user name and this results in the extra privileges

Fixed by rebuilding the hash key and updating the column_priv_hash structure
when the user is renamed

There are some problems about help text:
- It is stated that "auto" is the default twice. It need be stated only once.
- It is stated that --base64-output is short for --base64-output=always. But that sounds
like the default is "always", not "auto".

Make the help text clear as following:
Determine when the output statements should be base64-encoded BINLOG 
statements: 'never' disables it and works only for binlogs without 
row-based events; 'auto' prints base64 only when necessary (i.e., 
for row-based events and format description events); 'always' prints 
base64 whenever possible. 'always' is for debugging only and should 
not be used in a production system. If this argument is not given, 
the default is 'auto'; if it is given with no argument, 'always' is used.

Problem: the "caseinfo" member of CHARSET_INFO structure was not
initialized for user-defined Unicode collations, which made the
server crash.
Fix: initializing caseinfo properly.
