Made a some new buffers thread specific and changeable.
Resize of key_buffer.
AUTO_COMMIT -> AUTOCOMMIT
Fixed mutex bug in DROP DATABASE
Fixed bug when using auto_increment as second part of a key where first part could include NULL.
Split handler->extra() to extra() and extra_opt() to be able to support thread specific buffers.
Don't write message to error log when slave reconnects becasue of timeout.
Fixed possible update problem when using DELETE/UPDATE on small tables
(In some cases we used index even if table scanning would be better)
A lot of minior code cleanups
new file

All scripts & documentation is updated for this change.
Added better error messages for global privileges
(All commit emails since 4.0.1 checked)
This had to be done now, before the 4.1 tree changes to much, to make it easy to propagate bug fixes to the 4.1 tree.
first pull, merge,test, and get it to work.
The main change is the new replication code - now we have two slave threads
SQL thread and I/O thread. I have also re-written a lot of the code to
prepare for multi-master implementation.
I also documented IO_CACHE quite extensively and to some extend, THD class.
Patches required by Gemini
Fix to properly detect if there is an active transaction in InnoDB
Fix to not lock thread structure when doing automatic rollback when thread ends
Allow -O lower_case_names=0 on UNIX
Stop event and bugs the test suite could not catch
Did some big restructuring of binlog event classes - most important
change is that now each event class has exec_event method and one does
not need to modify slave core code to add a new event. Slave code is
now much smaller and easier to read
New faster list iterators
Change list code to be simpler and faster
Optimize count(distinct)
New error messages for UNION
Make create_tmp_table more general to be usable by UNION
