INSERT...ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE may cause error 1032: 
"Can't find record in ..." if we are inserting into
InnoDB table unique index of partial key with
underlying UTF-8 string field.

This error occurs because INSERT...ON DUPLICATE uses a wrong
procedure to copy string fields of multi-byte character sets
for index search.

This bug occurs when error message length exceeds allowed limit: my_error()
function outputs "%s" sequences instead of long string arguments.

Formats like %-.64s are very common in errmsg.txt files, however my_error()
function simply ignores precision of those formats.

- reverting wrong part in patch

add a new method is_equal in class Field_blob to compare BLOB field when alter table

- add additional sleep so that we don't get 100% cpu usage retrying saomething that can take some time before succeeding

The BETWEEN function was comparing DATE/DATETIME values either as ints or as
strings. Both methods have their disadvantages and may lead to a wrong
result.

Now BETWEEN function checks whether all of its arguments has the STRING result
types and at least one of them is a DATE/DATETIME item. If so it sets up
two Arg_comparator obects to compare with the compare_datetime() comparator
and uses them to compare such items.

Added two Arg_comparator object members and one flag to the
Item_func_between class for the correct DATE/DATETIME comparison.
The Item_func_between::fix_length_and_dec() function now detects whether
it's used for DATE/DATETIME comparison and sets up newly added Arg_comparator
objects to do this.
The Item_func_between::val_int() now uses Arg_comparator objects to perform
correct DATE/DATETIME comparison.
The owner variable of the Arg_comparator class now can be set to NULL if the
caller wants to handle NULL values by itself.
Now the Item_date_add_interval::get_date() function ajusts cached_field type according to the detected type.

DATE and DATETIME can be compared either as strings or as int. Both
methods have their disadvantages. Strings can contain valid DATETIME value
but have insignificant zeros omitted thus became non-comparable with
other DATETIME strings. The comparison as int usually will require conversion
from the string representation and the automatic conversion in most cases is
carried out in a wrong way thus producing wrong comparison result. Another
problem occurs when one tries to compare DATE field with a DATETIME constant.
The constant is converted to DATE losing its precision i.e. losing time part.

This fix addresses the problems described above by adding a special
DATE/DATETIME comparator. The comparator correctly converts DATE/DATETIME
string values to int when it's necessary, adds zero time part (00:00:00)
to DATE values to compare them correctly to DATETIME values. Due to correct
conversion malformed DATETIME string values are correctly compared to other
DATE/DATETIME values.

As of this patch a DATE value equals to DATETIME value with zero time part.
For example '2001-01-01' equals to '2001-01-01 00:00:00'.

The compare_datetime() function is added to the Arg_comparator class.
It implements the correct comparator for DATE/DATETIME values.
Two supplementary functions called get_date_from_str() and get_datetime_value()
are added. The first one extracts DATE/DATETIME value from a string and the
second one retrieves the correct DATE/DATETIME value from an item.
The new Arg_comparator::can_compare_as_dates() function is added and used
to check whether two given items can be compared by the compare_datetime()
comparator.
Two caching variables were added to the Arg_comparator class to speedup the
DATE/DATETIME comparison.
One more store() method was added to the Item_cache_int class to cache int
values.
The new is_datetime() function was added to the Item class. It indicates
whether the item returns a DATE/DATETIME value.
