Using a MEMORY table BTREE index for scanning for updatable rows
could lead to an infinite loop.
Everytime a key was inserted into a btree index, the position
in the index scan was cleared. The search started from the
beginning and found the same key again.
Now we do not clear the position on key insert an more.

The problem was that when memory was exhausted HEAP engine could crash
(GROUP BY uses HEAP TABLE). Alternatively, if SET was used, it could
report an error "You may only use constant expressions with SET" instead
of "Out of memory (Needed NNNNNN bytes)".
The solution is:
- pass MY_WME to (some) calls to my_malloc() to get correct message.
- fix heap_write() so that the first key is skipped during cleanup
on ENOMEM because it wasn't inserted and doesn't have to be
deleted.
No test case is provided because we can't test out-of-memory behaviour
in our current test framework.

(Mostly in DBUG_PRINT() and unused arguments)
Fixed bug in query cache when used with traceing (--with-debug)
Fixed memory leak in mysqldump
Removed warnings from mysqltest scripts (replaced -- with #)
Add support for VARCHAR with 1 or 2 length bytes
Enable VARCHAR packing in MyISAM files (previous patch didn't pack data properly)
Give error if we got problems in temporary tables during a SELECT
Don't use new table generated by ALTER TABLE if index generation fails
Fixed wrong call by range_end() (Could cause an ASSERT in debug mode)
Renamed HA_VAR_LENGTH to HA_VAR_LENGTH_PART
Renamed in all files FIELD_TYPE_STRING and FIELD_TYPE_VAR_STRING to MYSQL_TYPE_STRING and MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING to make it easy to catch all possible errors
Added support for VARCHAR KEYS to heap
Removed support for ISAM
Now only long VARCHAR columns are changed to TEXT on demand (not CHAR)
Internal temporary files can now use fixed length tables if the used VARCHAR columns are short
New (simpler) internal timestamp handling.
More debuging to heap tables.
Small cleanups to multi-table-delete
false -> 0 and true -> 1 (We should use TRUE and FALSE)
