Merge with MySQL 5.1.55

- Fixed some issues with partitions and connection_string, which also fixed lp:716890 "Pre- and post-recovery crash in Aria"
- Fixed wrong assert in Aria

Now need to merge with latest xtradb before pushing 

sql/ha_partition.cc:
  Ensure that m_ordered_rec_buffer is not freed before close.
sql/mysqld.cc:
  Changed to use opt_stack_trace instead of opt_pstack.
  Removed references to pstack
sql/partition_element.h:
  Ensure that connect_string is initialized
storage/maria/ma_key_recover.c:
  Fixed wrong assert
