Apparently newer libedit is readline-compatible enough
to be detected as a readline, with USE_NEW_READLINE_INTERFACE defined
and USE_LIBEDIT_INTERFACE not defined.
Let's set the locale unconditionally, independently from the
readline/libedit variant. It's already happening anyway now,
unless one specifies --default-character-set explicitly.
For compatibility reasons, add the option to the MariaDB client without
any functional changes besides simply accepting the option and emitting
a warning that it is obsolete.
In MySQL this security related option is compulsory in certain use
cases. When users switch to MariaDB, this client command that used to
work starts failing without a sensible error message. In worst case
users resort to re-installing the mysql client from MySQL.
In MariaDB the option is obsolete and should simply be ignored. Users
however don't have any opportunity to learn that unless the client
program tells them so.
Before:
mysql --enable-cleartext-plugin ...
mysql: unknown option '--enable-cleartext-plugin'
(program terminates)
After:
mysql --enable-cleartext-plugin ...
WARNING: option '--enable-cleartext-plugin' is obsolete.
(program executes)

10cd281:
Problem:- Some binary data is inserted into the table using
Jconnector. When binlog dump of the data is applied using mysql
client it gives syntax error.
Reason:-
After investigating it turns out to be a issue of mysql client not
able to properly handle \\0 <0 in binary>. In all binary files
where mysql client fails to insert
these 2 bytes are common (0x5c00)
Solution:-
I have changed mysql.cc to include for the possibility that binary
string can have \\0 in it
1755ea4:
Changes on top of Sachin’s patch. Specifically:
1) Refined the parsing break condition to only change the parser’s
behavior for parsing strings in binary mode (behavior of \0 outside
of strings is unchanged).
2) Prefixed binary_zero_insert.test with ‘mysql_’ to more clearly
associate the purpose of the test.
3) As the input of the test contains binary zeros (0x5c00),
different text editors can visualize this sequence differently, and
Github would not display it at all. Therefore, the input itself was
consolidated into the test and created out of hex sequences to make
it easier to understand what is happening.
4) Extended test to validate that the rows which correspond to the
INSERTS with 0x5c00 have the correct binary zero data.

instead of original name of the column
When doing refactoring of temporary table field creation a mistake was
done when copying the column name when creating internal temporary tables.
For internal temporary tables we should use the original field name, not
the item name (= alias).
One should not change the program arguments!
This change also reduces warnings from the icc compiler.
Almost all changes are just syntax changes (adding const to
'get_one_option function' declarations).
Other changes:
- Added a few cast of 'argument' from 'const char*' to 'char *'. This
was mainly in calls to 'external' functions we don't have control of.
- Ensure that all reset of 'password command line argument' are similar.
(In almost all cases it was just adding a comment and a cast)
- In mysqlbinlog.cc and mysqld.cc there was a few cases that changed
the command line argument. These places where changed to instead allocate
the option in a MEM_ROOT to avoid changing the argument. Some of this
code was changed to ensure that different programs did parsing the
same way. Added a test case for the changes in mysqlbinlog.cc
- Changed a few variables that took their value from command line options
from 'char *' to 'const char *'.
