Fixed bug #17823: 'arc' directories inside database directories.

Server created "arc" directories inside database directories and
maintained there useless copies of .frm files.

Creation and renaming procedures of those copies as well as
creation of "arc" directories has been discontinued.
Removal procedure has been kept untouched to be able to
cleanup existent database directories by the DROP DATABASE
query. Also view renaming procedure has been updated to remove
these directories.
