Fixed wrong calculation of buffer sizes. ulong datatype was used wrongly,
as were the casts to ulong. Buffer sizes should be of type size_t,
not ulong, or bad things happen on 64 bit Windows.

This patch changes pagecache struct to use size_t/ssize_t
where long/ulong were previously used. Also, removed several casts.

Structure initialization must feature all members present within the
struct.

Both aria and myisam storage engines feature a logic path in
thr_find_all_keys that leads to undefined behaviour by bypassing the
initialization code of variables after my_thread_init().

By refactoring the nested logic into a separate function, this problem
is resolved.

Timer thread of threadpool is created "joinable", but they're not "joined" on

Make mysql_waitpid return exit code 0 when -V flag is supplied.

The combination of --remove_file and --write_file on .expect file creates
a race condition which can be hit by MTR which reads the file in a loop.
Instead, .expect file should be changed with --append_file.
It was fixed in 10.x, but in 5.5 the sporadic failure still affected buildbot.
Fixed 3 test files which use the problematic combination

Aria service threads are created "joinable", but they're not "joined" on
completion. This causes memory leaks around thread local storage.

Fixed by joining service thread. Simplified relevant code and cleaned up
relevant valgrind suppressions.

Fix test whether process is alive in mysqltest.

Also fix SHUT_RD definition on Windows to be SD_RECEIVE.
SD_BOTH  was used instead prior to this patch, and this would
occasionally make mysql_shutdown()  fail - when the socket for the current connection
is not able send the COM_SHUTDOWN response anymore.

The check inserts a DWARF directive to tell stack unwinding that the
bottom of the (co-routine) stack has been reached. Without this, stack
traces may attempt to continue past the bottom of the stack.

The GCC version check was incorrect, and failed to trigger for GCC
version 5.[0123].

Use direct persistent index corruption set on InnoDB dictionary
for this test. Do not allow creating new indexes if one of the
existing indexes is already marked as corrupted.

This fix results in a deadlock between slave IO thread
and SQL thread.

DESCRIPTION
===========
Buffer overflow is reported in a lot of code sections
spanning across server, client programs, Regex libraries
etc. If not handled appropriately, they can cause abnormal
behaviour.

ANALYSIS
========
The reported casea are the ones which are likely to result
in SEGFAULT, MEMORY LEAK etc.

FIX
===
- sprintf() has been replaced by my_snprintf() to avoid
buffer overflow.
- my_free() is done after checking if the pointer isn't
  NULL already and setting it to NULL thereafter at few
  places.
- Buffer is ensured to be large enough to hold the data.
- 'unsigned int' (aka 'uint') is replaced with 'size_t'
to avoid wraparound.
- Memory is freed (if not done so) after its alloced and
used.
- Inserted assert() for size check in InnoDb memcached
code (from 5.6 onwards)
- Other minor changes

useful anyway.
