Fix for:
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).
