Item_hex_string::Item_hex_string
The status of memory allocation in the Lex_input_stream (called
from the Parser_state constructor) was not checked which led to
a parser crash in case of the out-of-memory error.
The solution is to introduce new init() member function in
Parser_state and Lex_input_stream so that status of memory
allocation can be returned to the caller.
Problem: ALTER TABLE ADD INDEX may lead to table copying if there's
numeric field(s) with non-default display width modificator specified.
Fix: compare numeric field's storage lenghts when we decide whether
they can be considered 'equal' for table alteration purposes.
a temporary table has grown out of heap memory reserved for it and
the remaining disk space is not big enough to store the table as
a MyISAM table.
The crash happens because the function create_myisam_from_heap
does not handle safely the mem_root structure associated
with the converted table in the case when an error has occurred.
