Remove one of the major sources of race condiitons in mariadb-test.
Normally, mariadb_close() sends COM_QUIT to the server and immediately
disconnects. In mariadb-test it means the test can switch to another
connection and sends queries to the server before the server even
started parsing the COM_QUIT packet and these queries can see the
connection as fully active, as it didn't reach dispatch_command yet.
This is a major source of instability in tests and many - but not all,
still less than a half - tests employ workarounds. The correct one
is a pair count_sessions.inc/wait_until_count_sessions.inc.
Also very popular was wait_until_disconnected.inc, which was completely
useless, because it verifies that the connection is closed, and after
disconnect it always is, it didn't verify whether the server processed
COM_QUIT. Sadly the placebo was as widely used as the real thing.
Let's fix this by making mariadb-test `disconnect` command _to wait_ for
the server to confirm. This makes almost all workarounds redundant.
In some cases count_sessions.inc/wait_until_count_sessions.inc is still
needed, though, as only `disconnect` command is changed:
* after external tools, like `exec $MYSQL`
* after failed `connect` command
* replication, after `STOP SLAVE`
* Federated/CONNECT/SPIDER/etc after `DROP TABLE`
and also in some XA tests, because an XA transaction is dissociated from
the THD very late, after the server has closed the client connection.
Collateral cleanups: fix comments, remove some redundant statements:
* DROP IF EXISTS if nothing is known to exist
* DROP table/view before DROP DATABASE
* REVOKE privileges before DROP USER
etc
The column INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_LOCKS.LOCK_DATA
would report NULL when the page that contains the locked
record does not reside in the buffer pool.
Pages may be evicted from the buffer pool due to some background
activity, such as the purge of transaction history loading
undo log pages to the buffer pool. The regression tests intentionally
run with a small buffer pool size setting.
To prevent the intermittent test failures, we will filter out the
contents of the LOCK_DATA column from the output.
Remove usage of deprecated variable storage_engine. It was deprecated in 5.5 but
it never issued a deprecation warning. Make it issue a warning in 10.5.1.
Replaced with default_storage_engine.
The test case waits for other threads to complete, but the wait is only 2
seconds. This is likely to sometimes be too little on our heavily loaded
buildbot VMs, that can easily stall for more than 2 seconds from time to time.
So let's try to increase the timeout (to about 40 seconds) and see if it
helps.
storage/innobase/handler/handler0alter.cc:
for NEWDATE key_type says unsigned, thus col->prtype says unsigned,
but field->flags says signed. Use the same flag for value retrieval
that was used for value storage.

Fix Bug#47808 innodb_information_schema.test fails when run under valgrind
by using the wait_until_rows_count macro that loops until the number of
rows becomes 14 instead of sleep 0.1, which is obviously very fragile.

Added "innodb" suite to default list of suites.
mysql-test/suite/innodb/include/have_innodb_plugin.inc:
This file determines if innodb plugin is available.
mysql-test/suite/innodb/my.cnf:
Removed temporary my.cnf, which was added for testing. Not

This test can only be run with InnoDB plugin.
mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/innodb-use-sys-malloc-master.opt:
Use "loose" prefix with mysqld options. This makes this
test skipped properly when no innodb is available.

mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/innodb_information_schema.test:
This test can only be run with InnoDB plugin.
Created a test suite 'innodb' under mysql-test/suite/innodb for the innodb plugin tests.
test suite 'innodb' has tests only which are not under any other mysql-test suites.
Total 14 testcases are added to the test suite.
Note: the patches in storage/innodb_plugin/mysql-test/patches are not applied yet
