memory issue ?
The mysql command line client could misinterpret some character
sequences as commands under some circumstances.
The upper limit for internal readline buffer was raised to 1 GB
(the same as for server's max_allowed_packet) so that any input
line is processed by add_line() as a whole rather than in
chunks.

The fix is to use case insensitive collation
for mysql client command search.

When asking what database is selected, client expected
to *always* get an answer from the server.
We now handle failure more gracefully.
See comments in ticket for a discussion of what happens,
and how things interlock.
client/mysql.cc:
Handle empty result-sets gracefully, as opposed
to just result sets with n>0 items that may themselves
be empty.

mysql-client used static buffer to concatenate server-
version and version_comment. Sufficiently long comments
could get cut off. This was harmless, but looked daft.
Now using a dynamic buffer instead.
client/mysql.cc:
Use dynamic rather than static buffer for server
information. If we can get both version and comment,
concat them and use that. Otherwise, try to use just
version. If that fails too, return empty string so
overly trusting callers do not crash. Release memory
as needed.

When the input string exceeds the maximum allowed size for the
internal buffer, batch_readline() returns a truncated string.
Since there was no way for a caller to determine whether the
string was truncated or not, the command line client assumed
batch_readline() to always return the whole input string and
appended a newline character. This resulted in garbled data
when importing dumps containing strings longer than the
maximum input buffer size.
Fixed by adding a flag to the batch_readline() interface to
signal a truncated string to the caller.
Other minor problems fixed during patch implementation:
- The maximum allowed buffer size for batch_readline() was set
up depending on the client's max_allowed_packet value. It does
not actully make any sense, as those variables are not
related. The input buffer size limit is now always set to 1
MB.
- fill_buffer() did not always set the EOF flag.
- The input buffer could actually grow twice as the specified
limit due to insufficient checks in intern_read_line().
client/my_readline.h:
Changed the interface of batch_readline().
client/mysql.cc:
Honor the truncated flag returned by batch_readline() and do
not append the newline character if it was set. Since we can't
change the interfaces for readline()/fgets() used in the
interactive mode, always assume the returned string was not
truncated. In addition, always set the batch_readline()
internal buffer to 1 MB, independently from the client's
max_allowed_packet.
client/readline.cc:
Added the 'truncated' argument do batch_readline() to signal
truncated string to a caller.
Fixed fill_buffer() to set the EOF flag correctly.
Fixed checks in intern_read_line() to not allow the internal
buffer grow past the specified limit.
