            testsuite funcs_1
    1. Fix the following bugs
       Bug#30440 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail: Character sets depend on configuration
          Solution: Test variants charset_collation_* adjusted to different builds
       Bug#32603 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail in "community" tree: "PROFILING" table
          Solution: Excluding "PROFILING" table from queries
       Bug#33654 "slow log" is missing a line
          Solution: Unify the content of the fields TABLES.TABLE_ROWS and
                    STATISTICS.CARDINALITY within result sets
       Bug#34532 Some funcs_1 tests do not clean up at end of testing
          Solution: DROP objects/reset global server variables modified during testing
                    + let tests missing implementation end before loading of tables
       Bug#31421 funcs_1: ndb__datadict fails, discrepancy between scripts and expected results
          Solution: Cut <engine>__datadict tests into smaller tests + generate new results.
       Bug#33599 INFORMATION_SCHEMA.STATISTICS got a new column INDEX_COMMENT: tests fail (2)
          Generation of new results during post merge fix
       Bug#33600 CHARACTER_OCTET_LENGTH is now CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH * 4
          Generation of new results during post merge fix
       Bug#33631 Platform-specific replace of CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH broken by 4-byte encoding
          Generation of new results during post merge fix
          + removal of platform-specific replace routine (no more needed)
    2. Restructure the tests
       - Test not more than one INFORMATION_SCHEMA view per testscript
       - Separate tests of I_S view layout+functionality from content related to the
         all time existing databases "information_schema", "mysql" and "test"
       - Avoid storage engine related variants of tests which are not sensible to
         storage engines at all.
    3. Reimplement or add some subtests + cleanup
       There is a some probability that even the reviewed changeset
       - does not fix all bugs from above   or
       - contains new bugs which show up on some platforms <> Linux or on one of
         the various build types
    4. The changeset contains fixes according to
       - one code review
       - minor bugs within testing code found after code review (accepted by reviewer)
       - problems found during tests with 5.0.56 in build environment
