Tests with checking metadata or that cannot be run with
the view-protocol are excluded from --view-protocol.
For tests that do not allow the use of an additional connection,
the util connection is disabled with "--disable_service_connection".
Also cases with bugs for --view-protocol are disabled.
The failure happened for group by queries when all tables where marked as
'const tables' (tables with 0-1 matching rows) and no row matched the
where clause and there was in addition a direct reference to a field.
In this case the field would not be properly reset and the query would
return 'random data' that happended to be in table->record[0].
Fixed by marking all const tables as null tables in this particular case.
Sergei also provided an extra test case for the code.

When creating a summary temporary table with bit fields used in the sum
expression with several parameters, like GROUP_CONCAT(), the counting of
bits needed in the record was wrong.
The reason we got an assert in Aria was because the bug caused a memory
overwrite in the record and Aria noticed that the data was 'impossible.
mark big_tables deprecated, the server can put temp tables on disk
as needed avoiding "table full" errors.
in case someone would really need to force a tmp table to be created
on disk from the start and for testing allow tmp_memory_table_size
to be set to 0.
fix tests to use that instead (and add a test that it actually
works).
make sure in-memory TREE size limit is never 0 (it's [ab]using
tmp_memory_table_size at the moment)
remove few sys_vars.*_basic tests
This patch contains a full implementation of the optimization
that allows to use in-memory rowid / primary filters built for range
conditions over indexes. In many cases usage of such filters reduce
the number of disk seeks spent for fetching table rows.
In this implementation the choice of what possible filter to be applied
(if any) is made purely on cost-based considerations.
This implementation re-achitectured the partial implementation of
the feature pushed by Galina Shalygina in the commit
8d5a11122c.
Besides this patch contains a better implementation of the generic
handler function handler::multi_range_read_info_const() that
takes into account gaps between ranges when calculating the cost of
range index scans. It also contains some corrections of the
implementation of the handler function records_in_range() for MyISAM.
This patch supports the feature for InnoDB and MyISAM.
