-This is mostly fixes for correct behaviour when using query cache + transactions + the thread that
fetches commit count from NDB at regular intervals. The major fix is to add a
list in thd_ndb, that keeps a list of NDB_SHARE's that were modified by
transaction and then "clearing" them in ndbcluster_commit.

Applied some changes to the mysql.server init script that are already shipped as an additional patch
in the 4.1.10a RPMs for SLES9/RHEL3:

- small improvement: use LSB functions to display startup success and failure, if available.
  Fall back to more primitive builtin functions otherwise.
- joined two pieces of code performing the same functionality into one "wait_for_pid" function
- added a "reload" function (LSB requirement)
