SHOW FIELDS FROM a view with no valid definer was possible (since fix
for Bug#26817), but gave NULL as a field-type. This led to mysqldump-ing
of such views being successful, but loading such a dump with the client
failing. Patch allows SHOW FIELDS to give data-type of field in underlying
table.

This is a 5.1 version of the patch.
Problem:
'log' and 'log_slow_queries' were "fixed" variables, i.e. they showed up
in SHOW VARIABLES, but could not be used in expressions like
"select @@log". Also, using them in the SET statement produced an
incorrect "unknown system variable" error.
Solution:
Since as of MySQL 5.1.12 one can enable or disable the general query log
or the slow query log at runtime by changing values of
general_log/slow_query_log, make 'log' and 'log_slow_queries" to be
synonyms for 'general_log' and 'slow_query_log' respectively. This
makes expressions using the '@@var' syntax backward compatible with
5.0 and SHOW VARIABLES output to be consistent with the SET statement.

This is a 5.0 version of the patch, it will be null-merged to 5.1

Solution:
Make 'log' and 'log_slow_queries' read-only dynamic variables to make
them available for use in expressions, and produce a correct error
about the variable being read-only when used in the SET statement.
all space column names.
The parser has been modified to check VIEW column names
with the check_column_name function and to report an error
on empty and all space column names (same as for TABLE
column names).

The optimizer pre-calculates the MIN/MAX values for queries like
SELECT MIN(kp_k) WHERE kp_1 = const AND ... AND kp_k-1 = const
when there is a key over kp_1...kp_k
In doing so it was not checking correctly nullability and
there was a superfluous assert().
Fixed by making sure that the field can be null before checking and
taking out the wrong assert().
.
Introduced a correct check for nullability
The MIN(field) can return NULL when all the row values in the group
are NULL-able or if there were no rows.
Fixed the assertion to reflect the case when there are no rows.
in the SELECT INTO OUTFILE clause starts with a special
character (one of n, t, r, b, 0, Z or N) and ENCLOSED BY
is empty, every occurrence of this character within a
field value is duplicated.
Duplication has been avoided.
New warning message has been added: "First character of
the FIELDS TERMINATED string is ambiguous; please use
non-optional and non-empty FIELDS ENCLOSED BY".
