ANALYZE FORMAT=JSON output now includes table.r_engine_stats which
has the engine statistics. Only non-zero members are printed.
Internally: EXPLAIN data structures Explain_table_acccess and
Explain_update now have handler* handler_for_stats pointer.
It is used to read statistics from handler_for_stats->handler_stats.
The following applies only to 10.9+, backport doesn't use it:
Explain data structures exist after the tables are closed. We avoid
walking invalid pointers using this:
- SQL layer calls Explain_query::notify_tables_are_closed() before
closing tables.
- After that call, printing of JSON output is disabled. Non-JSON output
can be printed but we don't access handler_for_stats when doing that.
Count the "gap" time between table accesses and display it as
r_other_time_ms in the "table" element.
* The advantage of this approach is that it doesn't add any new
my_timer_cycles() calls.
* The disadvantage is that the definition of what is done during
"other time" is not that clear: it includes checking the WHERE
(for this table), constructing index lookup tuple (for the next table)
writing to GROUP BY temporary table (as we dont account for that time
separately [yet], etc)
