- Encoding itself, implemented as a charset
"filename". Originally planned to use '.'
as an escape character, but now changed to '@'
for two reasons: "ls" does not return
file names starting with '.' considering them
as a kind of hidden files; some platforms
do not allow several dots in a file name.
- replacing many calls of my_snprintf() and
strnxmov() to the new build_table_filename().
- Adding MY_APPEND_EXT mysys flag, to append
an extention rather that replace it.
- Replacing all numeric constants in fn_format
flag arguments to their mysys definitions, e.g.
MY_UNPACK_FILENAME,
- Predictability in several function/methods:
when a table name can appear with or withot .frm
extension. Some functions/methods were changed
so accept names strictly with .frm, other - strictly
without .frm extensions. Several DBUG_ASSERTs were
added to check whether an extension is passed.

Cleaned up (and disabled part of) date/time/datetime format patch. One can't anymore change default read/write date/time/formats.
This is becasue the non standard datetime formats can't be compared as strings and MySQL does still a lot of datetime comparisons as strings
Changed flag argument to str_to_TIME() and get_date() from bool to uint
Removed THD from str_to_xxxx functions and Item class.
Fixed core dump when doing --print-defaults
Move some common string functions to strfunc.cc
Dates as strings are now of type my_charset_bin instead of default_charset()
Introduce IDENT_QUOTED to not have to create an extra copy of simple identifiers (all chars < 128)
Removed xxx_FORMAT_TYPE enums and replaced them with the old TIMESTAMP_xxx enums
Renamed some TIMESTAMP_xxx enums to more appropriate names
Use defines instead of integers for date/time/datetime string lengths
Added to build system and use the new my_strtoll10() function.
