"Server Variables for Plugins"
Implement support for plugins to declare server variables.
Demonstrate functionality by removing InnoDB specific code from sql/*
New feature for HASH - HASH_UNIQUE flag
New feature for DYNAMIC_ARRAY - initializer accepts preallocated ptr.
Completed support for plugin reference counting.
Problem:
When creating a temporary field for a temporary table in create_tmp_field_from_field(), a resulting field is created as an exact copy of an original one (in Field::new_field()). However, Field_enum and Field_set contain a pointer (typelib) to memory allocated in the parent table's MEM_ROOT, which under some circumstances may be deallocated later by the time a temporary table is used.
Solution:
Override the new_field() method for Field_enum and Field_set and create a separate copy of the typelib structure in there.
