      bug #26215: mysql command line client should not strip comments
                  from SQL statements
    and
      bug #11230: Keeping comments when storing stored procedures
    
    With the introduction of multiline comments support in the command line
    client (mysql) in MySQL 4.1, it became impossible to preserve
    client-side comments within single SQL statements or stored routines.
    This feature was useful for monitoring tools and maintenance.
    
    The patch adds a new option to the command line client
    ('--enable-comments', '-c') which allows to preserve SQL comments and
    send them to the server for single SQL statements, and to keep comments
    in the code for stored procedures / functions / triggers.
    
    The patch is a modification of the contributed patch from bug #11230
    with the following changes:
    - code style changes to conform to the coding guidelines
    - changed is_prefix() to my_strnncoll() to detect the DELIMITER
    command, since the first one is case-sensitive and not charset-aware
    - renamed t/comments-51.* to t/mysql_comments.*
    - removed tests for comments in triggers since 5.0 does not have SHOW
    CREATE TRIGGER (those tests will be added back in 5.1).
    
    The test cases are only for bug #11230. No automated test case for bug
    #26215 is possible due to the test suite deficiencies (though the cases
    from the bug report were tested manually).
