The problem was that when converting a string to an exact number,
rounding didn't work, because conversion didn't understand
approximate numbers notation.
Fix: a new function for string-to-number conversion was implemented,
which is aware of approxinate number notation (with decimal point
and exponent, e.g. -19.55e-1)
into parts when converting to Unicode.
m_ctype.h:
Reorganizing mb_wc return codes to be able
to return "an unassigned N-byte-long character".
sql_string.cc:
Adding code to detect and properly handle
unassigned characters (i.e. the those character
which are correctly formed according to the
character specifications, but don't have Unicode
mapping).
Many files:
Fixing conversion function to return new codes.
ctype_ujis.test, ctype_gbk.test, ctype_big5.test:
Adding a test case.
ctype_ujis.result, ctype_gbk.result, ctype_big5.result:
Fixing results accordingly.
ctype-euc_kr.c:
ctype-gb2312.c:
Adding specific well_formed_length functions
for gb2312 and euckr, to allow storing characters
which are correct according to the character set
specifications but just don't have Unicode mapping.
Previously only those which have Unicode mapping
could be stored, while unassigned characters lead
to data truncation.

mysql_fix_privilege_tables.sql, mysql_create_system_tables.sh:
Adding true BINARY/VARBINARY: fixing "password" type, not to be 0x00-padding.
Many files:
Adding true BINARY/VARBINARY: fixing tests not to output 0x00 bytes.
Adding true BINARY/VARBINARY: new pad_char structure member.
ctype-bin.c:
Adding true BINARY/VARBINARY: new pad_char structure member.
New strnxfrm, with two trailing length bytes.
field.cc:
Adding true BINARY/VARBINARY.
In cp932, '\' character can be the second byte in a
multi-byte character stream. This makes it difficult to use
mysql_escape_string. Added flag to indicate which languages allow
'\' as second byte of multibyte sequence so that when putting a prepared
statement into the binlog we can decide at runtime whether hex encoding
is really needed.
UPPER/LOWER now can return a string with different length.
mi_test1.c:
Adding new arguments.
Many files:
Changeing caseup/casedn to return a result with different
length than argument.
sql_string.h:
Removing unused method,
mysql_priv.h:
Removing unused method
sequence boundaries in functions LIKE and LOCATE in
the case of "binary" collation. Comparison was done
like if the strings were just a binary strings without
character set assumption.
