Sending several "KILL QUERY" statements to target a connection running
"SELECT SLEEP" could freeze the server.

The locking order in Item_func_sleep was wrong and this could lead to a
dead lock.

This patch solves the issue by resolving the locking order properly.

When the server was out of memory it crashed because of invalid memory access.

This patch adds detection for failed memory allocations and make the server
output a proper error message.

were accidentally removed during a previous rototill of this
code.  Fixes bug#27692.
  
While it can be argued we should strive to provide a 'secure by
default' installation, this happens to be the setup currently
documented in the manual as the default, so defer changes that
improve security out of the box to a co-ordinated effort later
on.
  
For now, make a note about the test databases and anonymous user
in mysql_install_db and recommend that mysql_secure_installation
be ran for users wishing to remove these defaults.

   Updated variable size arrays to use vector like Jonas did for 5.1 so that my build would not break

The optimizer sets index traversal in reverse order only if there are 
 used key parts that are not compared to a constant.
However using the primary key as an ORDER BY suffix rendered the check
incomplete : going in reverse order must still be used even if 
all the parts of the secondary key are compared to a constant.

Fixed by relaxing the check and set reverse traversal even when all
the secondary index keyparts are compared to a const.
Also account for the case when all the primary keys are compared to a
constant.

- The bug was caused by COUNT(DISTINCT ...) code using Unique object in 
  a way that assumed that BIT(N) column occupies a contiguous space in
  temp_table->record[0] buffer. 
- The fix is to make COUNT(DISTINCT ...) code instruct create_tmp_table to
  create temporary table with column of type BIGINT, not BIT(N).

Declaring an all space column name in the SELECT FROM DUAL or in a view
leads to misleading warning message:
"Leading spaces are removed from name ' '".

The Item::set_name method has been modified to raise warnings like
"Name ' ' has become ''" in case of the truncation of an all
space identifier to an empty string identifier instead of the
"Leading spaces are removed from name ' '" warning message.
