MDEV-32188 make TIMESTAMP use whole 32-bit unsigned range
- Added --update-history option to mariadb-dump to change 2038
row_end timestamp to 2106.
- Updated ALTER TABLE ... to convert old row_end timestamps to
2106 timestamp for tables created before MariaDB 11.4.0.
- Fixed bug in CHECK TABLE where we wrongly suggested to USE REPAIR
TABLE when ALTER TABLE...FORCE is needed.
- mariadb-check printed table names that where used with REPAIR TABLE but
did not print table names used with ALTER TABLE or with name repair.
Fixed by always printing a table that is fixed if --silent is not
used.
- Added TABLE::vers_fix_old_timestamp() that will change max-timestamp
for versioned tables when replication from a pre-11.4.0 server.
A few test cases changed. This is caused by:
- CHECK TABLE now prints 'Please do ALTER TABLE... instead of
'Please do REPAIR TABLE' when there is a problem with the information
in the .frm file (for example a very old frm file).
- mariadb-check now prints repaired table names.
- mariadb-check also now prints nicer error message in case ALTER TABLE
is needed to repair a table.
- Adding Type_handler::traditional_merge_field_type()
- Removing real_type_to_type(), field_merge_type()
- Making Type_handler_var_string to merge as VARCHAR
- Additionally, fixing Field_string::print() to add the "/*old*/"
comment into the data type for the old VARCHAR.
This is similar to what MDEV-8267 earlier did for old DECIMAL.
- Adding tests
