Issue
-----
This problem occurs when varchar columns are used in a
internal temporary table. The type of the field is set
incorrectly to the generic FIELD_NORMAL type. This in turn
results in an inaccurate calculation of the record length.
Valgrind issues will occur since initialization has not
happend for some bytes.
Fix
----
While creating the temporary table, the type of the field
needs to be to set FIELD_VARCHAR. This will allow myisam
to calculate the record length accurately.
This fix is a backport of BUG#13350136.

attempt to create spatial index on char > 31 bytes".
Attempt to create spatial index on char field with length
greater than 31 byte led to assertion failure on server
compiled with safemutex support.
The problem occurred in mi_create() function which was called
to create a new version of table being altered. This function
failed since it detected an attempt to create a spatial key
on non-binary column and tried to return an error.
On its error path it tried to unlock THR_LOCK_myisam mutex
which has not been not locked at this point. Indeed such an
incorrect behavior was caught by safemutex wrapper and caused
assertion failure.
This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that mi_create()
doesn't releases THR_LOCK_myisam mutex on error path if it was
not acquired.

Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.

The problem was that symlink.test failed due to debug assertions or
due to errors emitted for wrong statements (in non-debug builds)
if 6.0 version of server was run with --thread-handling=pool-of-threads
option.
The above problems were caused by that on the one hand code mi_create()
which handles case when error is returned relies on my_errno being set
to appropriate non-0 value, but on the other it has not done this
in case when error was emitted due to discovery that share for table
which we are going to create is already present in the list of open
shares. Running server with pool-of-threads option just exposed this
bug since in this scheduler mode my_errno is reset to 0 when connection
(THD) is reattached to the "real" thread.
This fix ensures that code in mi_create() properly sets my_errno in
the case described above.
Since original reason that caused this bug to be exposed in 6.0 tree
might also under very special conditions lead to incorrect behavior
of earlier versions of server (i.e. to errors emitted for wrong
statements) this patch is also being pushed into 5.1 tree.
No test case is present as this code is already covered by a test
case + pushbuild options combination in 6.0.
