IN quantified predicates are never executed directly. They are rather wrapped
inside nodes called IN Optimizers (Item_in_optimizer) which take care of the
execution. However, this is not done during query preparation. Unfortunately
the LIKE predicate pre-evaluates constant right-hand side arguments even
during name resolution. Likely this is meant as an optimization.
      
Fixed by not pre-evaluating LIKE arguments in view prepare mode.

Back-ported to 5.0s

The user-visible problem was that changes to column-level privileges,
happened in between of PREPARE and EXECUTE of a prepared statement, were
neglected. I.e. a prepared statement could be executed with the
column-level privileges as of PREPARE-time. The problem existed for
column-level privileges only.

A similar problem existed for stored programs: the changes between
executions didn't have an effect.

Technically the thing is that table references are cached in
Prepared_statement::prepare() call. In subsequent
Prepared_statement::execute() calls those cached values are used.
There are two functions to get a field by name: find_field_in_table() and
find_field_in_table_ref(). On prepare-phase find_field_in_table_ref() is
called, on execute-phase -- find_field_in_table() because the table is
cached. find_field_in_table() does not check column-level privileges and
expects the caller to do that. The problem was that this check was
forgotten.

The fix is to check them there as it happens in find_field_in_table_ref().

Improved error handling such that queries against Information_Schema.Tables won't
fail if a Federated table is unable to connect to remote host.

will not display "indicated result file not found" due to wrongly named
var directory.

backport from 5.1

Problem: a flaw (derefencing a NULL pointer) in the LIKE optimization
code may lead to a server crash in some rare cases.

Fix: check the pointer before its dereferencing.

Updated the README file.

Fix a regression (due to a typo) which caused spurious incorrect
argument errors for long data stream parameters if all forms of
logging were disabled (binary, general and slow logs).

Calculating the estimated number of records for a range scan
may take a significant time, and it was impossible for a user
to interrupt that process by killing the connection or the
query.

Fixed by checking the thread's 'killed' status in
check_quick_keys() and interrupting the calculation process if
it is set to a non-zero value.
