  HA_PARTITION_FUNCTION_SUPPORTED indicates that the function is
  supported at all.
  HA_FAST_CHANGE_PARTITION means that optimised variants of the changes
  exists but they are not necessarily done online.

  HA_ONLINE_DOUBLE_WRITE means that the handler supports writing to both
  the new partition and to the old partitions when updating through the
  old partitioning schema while performing a change of the partitioning.
  This means that we can support updating of the table while performing
  the copy phase of the change. For no lock at all also a double write
  from new to old must exist and this is not required when this flag is
  set.
  This is actually removed even before it was introduced the first time.
  The new idea is that handlers will handle the lock level already in
  store_lock for ALTER TABLE partitions.

  HA_PARTITION_ONE_PHASE is a flag that can be set by handlers that take
  care of changing the partitions online and in one phase. Thus all phases
  needed to handle the change are implemented inside the storage engine.
  The storage engine must also support auto-discovery since the frm file
  is changed as part of the change and this change must be controlled by
  the storage engine. A typical engine to support this is NDB (through
  WL #2498).

  ha_field_option_struct for field level options,
  ha_index_option_struct for key level options. The engine either
  defines a structure of this name, or uses #define's to map
  these "appropriate" names to the actual structure type name.

  ULL options use a ulonglong as the backing store.
  HA_*OPTION_NUMBER() takes the option name, the structure field name,
  the default value for the option, min, max, and blk_siz values.

  STRING options use a char* as a backing store.
  HA_*OPTION_STRING takes the option name and the structure field name.
  The default value will be 0.

  ENUM options use a uint as a backing store (not enum!!!).
  HA_*OPTION_ENUM takes the option name, the structure field name,
  the default value for the option as a number, and a string with the
  permitted values for this enum - one string with comma separated values,
  for example: "gzip,bzip2,lzma"

  BOOL options use a bool as a backing store.
  HA_*OPTION_BOOL takes the option name, the structure field name,
  and the default value for the option.
  From the SQL, BOOL options accept YES/NO, ON/OFF, and 1/0.

  The name of the option is limited to 255 bytes,
  the value (for string options) - to the 32767 bytes.

  See ha_example.cc for an example.
