Description:
row_count() and mysql_affected_rows() always return -1 when using prepared statements.

How to repeat:
create table t (id int);
prepare ins_call from "insert into t (id) values (1)";
execute ins_call;
select row_count();

mysql_stmt_row_count() is the right function to call to get the number of rows. Bogus report?

Yes, mysql_stmt_affected_rows() is the correct call in this case.  We need a way to get this value
with SQL, from an SP for example.

Please consider adding a comment before the if statement you modified, that says:
In case of CALL or EXECUTE statements, do not reset row count so that the value
of row count of the last inner statement is preserved.

OK to push.
