BUG#49481: RBR: MyISAM and bit fields may cause slave to stop on delete:

cant find record

Some engines return data for the record. Despite the fact that
the null bit is set for some fields, their old value may still in
the row. This can happen when unpacking an AI from the binlog on
top of a previous record in which a field is set to NULL, which
previously contained a value. Ultimately, this may cause the
comparison of records to fail when the slave is doing an index or
range scan.

We fix this by deploying a call to reset() for each field that is
set to null while unpacking a row from the binary log.
Furthermore, we also add mixed mode test case to cover the
scenario where updating and setting a field to null through a
Query event and later searching it through a rows event will
succeed.

Finally, we also change the reset() method, from Field_bit class,
so that it takes into account bits stored among the null bits and
not only the ones stored in the record.

+# Both of the following tests check that comparison of binlog BI
+# against SE record will not fail due to remains from previous values
+# in the SE record (before a given field was set to null).
+#
+# In MIXED mode:
+# - Insert and update are executed as statements
+# - Delete is executed as a row event
+# - Assertion: checks that comparison will not fail because the update
+#              statement will clear the record contents for the nulled
+#              field. If data was not cleared, some engines may keep
+#              the value and return it later as garbage - despite the
+#              fact that field is null. This may cause slave to
+#              falsely fail in the comparison (memcmp would fail
+#              because of "garbage" in record data).
+#
+# In ROW mode:
+# - Insert, update and delete are executed as row events.
+# - Assertion: checks that comparison will not fail because the update
+#              rows event will clear the record contents before
+#              feeding the new value to the SE. This protects against
+#              SEs that do not clear record contents when storing
+#              nulled fields. If the engine did not clear the data it
+#              would cause slave to falsely fail in the comparison
+#              (memcmp would fail because of "garbage" in record
+#              data). This scenario is pretty much the same described
+#              above in MIXED mode, but checks different execution
+#              path in the slave.
