This bug was introduced by the fix for the bug#27300. In this fix a section
of code was added to the Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method.
This section intended to create Field_geom fields for the Item_geometry_func
class and its descendants. In order to get the geometry type of the current
item it casted "this" to the Item_geometry_func* type. But the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method is also used for creation of
fields for UNION and in this case this method is called for an object of the
Item_type_holder class and the cast to the Item_geometry_func* type causes 
a server crash.

Now the Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method correctly works when it's
called for both the Item_type_holder and the Item_geometry_func classes.
The new geometry_type variable is added to the Item_type_holder class.
The new method called get_geometry_type is added to the Item_field
and the Field classes. It returns geometry type from the field for the
Item_field and the Field_geom classes and fails an assert for other Field
descendants.

wrong result for DML
When making key reference buffers over CHAR fields whitespace (0x20) 
must be used to fill in the remaining space in the field's buffer.
This is what Field_string::store() does.
Fixed Field_string::get_key_image() to do the same.

flag is set.

When the CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS flag is set then the server should return
found number of rows independently whether they were updated or not.
But this wasn't the case for the INSERT statement which always returned
number of rows that were actually changed thus providing wrong info to
the user.

Now the select_insert::send_eof method and the mysql_insert function
are sending the number of touched rows if the CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS flag is set.

integer constants.

This bug is introduced by the fix for bug#16377. Before the fix the 
Item_func_between::fix_length_and_dec method converted the second and third
arguments to the type of the first argument if they were constant and the first
argument is of the DATE/DATETIME type. That approach worked well for integer
constants and sometimes produced bad result for string constants. The fix for
the bug#16377 wrongly removed that code at all and as a result of this the
comparison of a DATETIME field and an integer constant was carried out in a
wrong way and sometimes led to wrong result sets.

Now the Item_func_between::fix_length_and_dec method converts the second and
third arguments to the type of the first argument if they are constant, the
first argument is of the DATE/DATETIME type and the DATETIME comparator isn't
applicable.

The value of "low-priority-updates" option and the LOW PRIORITY
prefix was taken into account at parse time.
This caused triggers (among others) to ignore this flag (if
supplied for the DML statement).
Moved reading of the LOW_PRIORITY flag at run time.
Fixed an incosistency when handling
SET GLOBAL LOW_PRIORITY_UPDATES : now it is in effect for
delayed INSERTs.
Tested by checking the effect of LOW_PRIORITY flag via a 
trigger.

This is an additional fix.
Item::val_xxx methods are supposed to use original data source and
Item::val_xxx_result methods to use the item's result field. But for the
Item_func_set_user_var class val_xxx_result methods were mapped to val_xxx
methods. This leads, in particular, to producing bad sort keys and thus
wrong order of the result set of queries with group by/order by clauses.

The set of val_xxx_result methods is added to the Item_func_set_user_var
class. It's the same as the val_xxx set of method but uses the result_field
to return a value.

using a derived table over a grouping subselect.

This crash happens only when materialization of the derived tables 
requires creation of auxiliary temporary table, for example when
a grouping operation is carried out with usage of a temporary table.

The crash happened because EXPLAIN EXTENDED when printing the query
expression made an attempt to use the objects created in the mem_root
of the temporary table which has been already freed by the moment
when printing is called.

This bug appeared after the method Item_field::print() had been 
introduced.

  Additional patch for bug #28244 to workaround valgrind warnings.

into  moonbone.local:/mnt/gentoo64/work/28494-bug-5.0-opt-mysql

The end_update() function uses the Item::save_org_in_field() function to
save original values of items into the group buffer. But for the 
Item_func_set_user_var this method was mapped to the save_in_field method.
The latter function wrongly decides to use the result_field. This leads to
saving incorrect value in the grouping buffer and wrong result of the whole
query.

The can_use_result_field argument of the bool type is added to the
Item_func_set_user_var::save_in_field() function. If it is set to FALSE
then the item's result field won't be used. Otherwise it will be detected
whether the result field will be used (old behaviour).
Two wrapping functions for the function above are added to the 
Item_func_set_user_var class:
the save_in_field(Field *field, bool no_conversions) - it calls the above
function with the can_use_result_field set to TRUE.
the save_org_in_field(Field *field) - same, but the can_use_result_field
is set to FALSE.

ON conditions from JOIN expression were ignored at CHECK OPTION
check when updating a multi-table view with CHECK OPTION.

The st_table_list::prep_check_option function has been
modified to to take into account ON conditions at CHECK OPTION check
It was also changed to build the check option condition only once
for any update used in PS/SP.
