- Fix typo in Item_func_export_set::fix_length_and_dec() which caused character set aggregation to fail
- Remove default argument from last arg of agg_arg_charsets() function, to reduce potential errors

Remove some sql_print_error() calls which were triggered by user error (i.e., not server-level events at all).

Also, convert an sql_print_error -> sql_print_information for a non-error server event.

Make the encryption functions MD5(), SHA1() and ENCRYPT() return binary results.
    
Make MAKE_SET() and EXPORT_SET() use the correct character set for their default separator strings.

do not look for client-specific commands while inside a multi-line comment.
we will allow multi-comments pretty much anywhere within SQL-statements,
but client-specific commands (help, use, print, ...) must be the first token
in the input.

  * don't use join cache when the incoming data set is already ordered
    for ORDER BY
    This choice must be made because join cache will effectively
    reverse the join order and the results will be sorted by the index
    of the table that uses join cache.

may return a wrong result.

An Item_sum_hybrid object has the was_values flag which indicates whether any
values were added to the sum function. By default it is set to true and reset
to false on any no_rows_in_result() call. This method is called only in
return_zero_rows() function. An ALL/ANY subquery can be optimized by MIN/MAX
optimization. The was_values flag is used to indicate whether the subquery
has returned at least one row. This bug occurs because return_zero_rows() is
called only when we know that the select will return zero rows before
starting any scans but often such information is not known.
In the reported case the return_zero_rows() function is not called and
the was_values flag is not reset to false and yet the subquery return no rows
Item_func_not_all and Item_func_nop_all functions return a wrong
comparison result.

The end_send_group() function now calls no_rows_in_result() for each item
in the fields_list if there is no rows were found for the (sub)query.

    
The problem is that the author used the wrong function to send a warning to the 
user about truncation of data.  push_warning() takes a constant string and 
push_warning_printf() takes a format and variable arguments to fill it.

Since the string we were complaining about contains percent characters, the 
printf() code interprets the "%Y" et c. that the user sends.  That's wrong, and
often causes a crash, especially if the date mentions seconds, "%s".

A alternate fix would be to use  push_warning_printf(..., "%s", warn_buff) .

The ALL/ANY subqueries are the subject of MIN/MAX optimization. The matter
of this optimization is to embed MIN() or MAX() function into the subquery
in order to get only one row by which we can tell whether the expression
with ALL/ANY subquery is true or false.
But when it is applied to a subquery like 'select a_constant' the reported bug
occurs. As no tables are specified in the subquery the do_select() function 
isn't called for the optimized subquery and thus no values have been added 
to a MIN()/MAX() function and it returns NULL instead of a_constant.
This leads to a wrong query result.

For the subquery like 'select a_constant' there is no reason to apply
MIN/MAX optimization because the subquery anyway will return at most one row.
Thus the Item_maxmin_subselect class is more appropriate for handling such
subqueries.

The Item_in_subselect::single_value_transformer() function now checks
whether tables are specified for the subquery. If no then this subselect is
handled like a UNION using an Item_maxmin_subselect object.

To make MySQL compatible with some ODBC applications, you can find
the AUTO_INCREMENT value for the last inserted row with the following query:
 SELECT * FROM tbl_name WHERE auto_col IS NULL.
This is done with a special code that replaces 'auto_col IS NULL' with
'auto_col = LAST_INSERT_ID'.
However this also resets the LAST_INSERT_ID to 0 as it uses it for a flag
so as to ensure that only the first SELECT ... WHERE auto_col IS NULL
after an INSERT has this special behaviour.
In order to avoid resetting the LAST_INSERT_ID a special flag is introduced
in the THD class. This flag is used to restrict the second and subsequent
SELECTs instead of LAST_INSERT_ID.

The implementation of the method Item_func_reverse::val_str
for the REVERSE function modified the argument of the function.
This led to wrong results for expressions that contained
REVERSE(ref) if ref occurred somewhere else in the expressions.

When using a parameter bind MYSQL_TYPE_DATE in a prepared statement,
the time part of the MYSQL_TIME buffer was written to zero in
mysql_stmt_execute(). The param_store_date() function in libmysql.c
worked directly on the provided buffer.
Changed to use a copy of the buffer.

 - Added comments.
 - Make SEL_ARG::clone() set SEL_ARG::elements in the created copy.
