Bug #48024 Innodb doesn't work with multi-statements

Description:
This is a spin-off of bug #40877.

Innodb threats the query text that is passed to it by the server (through thd_query()) as a null-terminated string.
This causes problems with multi-statements that contain foreign key definition code, as demonstrated by the example in bug #40877 because the individual statements in such a multi statement are not null terminated and Innodb gets confused by reading the foreign key definitions in the next statement(s).

How to repeat:
See the example in bug #40877

Suggested fix:
I will implement a new function for 5.1 that returns a pointer to LEX_STRING instead (string pointer and length).

Please update the innodb logic to use the new function in 5.1 codebase instead of thd_query() (that I want to obsolete).
Please update the the 5.0 innodb code to use store and use THD::query_length.

Note that the fix for bug #40877 (the extended API function) is a pre-requisite for this bug.

Also see bug #38816 -- a lock around InnoDB thd::query access is desirable.

I have a patch for this, but I would like to write a test case too. Is it possible to have mysql-test-run submit multiple statements at a time? I tried it, but my test passed both with and without my patch. I tried with these statements (the CREATE/ALTER also on a single line):

CREATE TABLE bug48024(a int PRIMARY KEY,b int NOT NULL,KEY(b)) ENGINE=InnoDB;
CREATE TABLE bug48024_b(b int PRIMARY KEY) ENGINE=InnoDB;
ALTER TABLE bug48024 ADD CONSTRAINT FOREIGN KEY(b) REFERENCES bug48024_b(b);

DROP TABLE bug48024,bug48024_b;

While working on this, I noticed and filed Bug #53644 (InnoDB thinks that /*/ starts and ends a comment). The fix will fix that bug as well.

This bug is in status "Documenting". Is there any documentation that needs to be changed, i.e. do we say somewhere that these multi-statements will not work?

Here is what I am putting in the change log:

Multi-statement execution could fail with an error about foreign
key constraints. This problem could affect calls to
mysql_query() and
mysql_real_query(), and
CALL statements that invoke stored 
procedures.
