This should solve all problems on IBM390s machines.

- Fix MDEV-7935 by suppressing error resetting code in delete_or_rename_table.
  However, the issue is that this code was added because without it an assertion
  was raised in some cases. Unfortunately I can't remember what were these cases.
  Therefore fixing it in this case will perhaps make a new crash happening on another cases.

From the previous branch:
commit eda4928ff122a0845baf5ade83b4aa29244a3a89
Author: Olivier Bertrand <bertrandop@gmail.com>
Date:   Mon Mar 9 22:34:56 2015 +0100

- Add discovery to JSON tables
  When columns are not defined, CONNECT analyses the json file to find column definitions.
  This wors only on table that are an array of objects. Pair keys are used to generate the
  column names and pair values are used for its definition. When the LEVEL option is defined
  as a not null integer, the eventual JPATH is scanned up to the LEVEL value.

From the current one:
- Fix MDEV-7521 when column names are utf8 encoded (not a general multi-charset fix)

- Adds more to JSON discovery processing and UDF's

- Use PlugDup everywhere it replaces PlugSubAlloc + strcpy.

- Making result files to be ended by LF to avoid test failures

This fix compiling error when compiled with Visual Studio 9 2008

modified:

When the server starts up, check if the master-bin.state file was lost.
If it was, recover its contents by scanning the last binlog file, thus
avoiding running with a corrupt binlog state.

Temporary table count fix. The number of temporary tables was increased
when the table is not actually created. (when do_not_open was passed
as TRUE to create_tmp_table).

Add a testcase. The bug itself was fixed by the fix for MDEV-7316.
