-  Execute the prepared query

+    mysql_stmt_execute()
+    stmt  statement handle. The handle must be created
+          with mysql_stmt_init() and prepared with
+          mysql_stmt_prepare(). If there are placeholders
+          in the statement they must be bound to local
+          variables with mysql_stmt_bind_param().
+
+  DESCRIPTION
+    This function will automatically flush pending result
+    set (if there is one), send parameters data to the server
+    and read result of statement execution.
+    If previous result set was cached with mysql_stmt_store_result()
+    it will also be freed in the beginning of this call.
+    The server can return 3 types of responses to this command:
+    - error, can be retrieved with mysql_stmt_error()
+    - ok, no result set pending. In this case we just update
+      stmt->insert_id and stmt->affected_rows.
+    - the query returns a result set: there could be 0 .. N
+    rows in it. In this case the server can also send updated
+    result set metadata.
+
+    Next steps you may want to make:
+    - find out if there is result set with mysql_stmt_field_count().
+    If there is one:
+    - optionally, cache entire result set on client to unblock
+    connection with mysql_stmt_store_result()
+    - bind client variables to result set columns and start read rows
+    with mysql_stmt_fetch().
+    - reset statement with mysql_stmt_reset() or close it with
+    mysql_stmt_close()
+    Otherwise:
+    - find out last insert id and number of affected rows with
+    mysql_stmt_insert_id(), mysql_stmt_affected_rows()
+
+  RETURN
+    0   success
+    1   error, message can be retrieved with mysql_stmt_error().
