a5ab2c30df BUG #8368 "mysqldump needs --slave-data option"
Added this option, named as "--dump-slave". The purpose of this option is to be
able to produce a dump from a slave used for making backups of the master. Originally,
dumping from the main master was fine, but as more data accumulated, the dump process
would take over 30 minutes, locking up the master database hence website for 30 minutes.
A slave dedicated to producing backups was the answer, but I needed a dump that could be

used to restore a slave instantly and in order to do that, it has to have three things 
contained in the dump:
  
  1. "STOP SLAVE;" at the beginning
  2. "CHANGE MASTER TO ...<the master - info from 'show slave status'>"
  3. "START SLAVE;" at the end
  
These options in this changeset contain this.
  
  --stop-slave adds "STOP SLAVE" to the beginning of the dump and "STOP SLAVE" 
  to the end of the dump.
  
  --include-host gives the user the option to have the host explicitely added
  to the "CHANGE MASTER TO ..." line.
  
  --dump-slave adds the "CHANGE MASTER ..." to the dump representing not the slave's
  master binlog info, but the slave's master's info from "SHOW SLAVE STATUS" 


client/client_priv.h:
  Added OPT_SLAVE_DATA to client_priv.h
client/mysqldump.c:
  * Added --dump-slave option (name per Brian)
  * Added --stop-slave to print "STOP SLAVE;" into the dump
  * Added --include-host option to include "MASTER_HOST=..." and "MASTER_PORT=..."
    to the dump since unlike --master-data, the host can't be assumed to be
    the local host
  * Added do_start_slave and do_stop_slave to stop the slave sql thread upon
    start of the dump process, and to start the slave sql upon finish of dump process -
    to keep the log information frozen during this time.
  * Added do_show_slave_status for obtaining slave information needed to compose 
    "CHANGE MASTER ..." output to the master of this slave.
  * Added necessary long options and defines required for new options
