Bug #9472 --max-allowed-packet and --net-buffer-length don't handle K, M, G suffixes

Description:
in get_one_option() in sql/mysqld.cc, there code to handle max-allowed-packet and net-buffer-length for EMBEDDED_LIBRARY, but it uses atoi() and not something that knows how to deal with the K, M, and G suffixes for sizes. this is why the myisam-blob test does not work with the embedded server.

How to repeat:
disable the automatic skipping of myisam-blob in mysql-test-run when running with --embedded-server, and run the myisam-blob test. notice the error messages say "Result of repeat() was larger than max_allowed_packet (24) - truncated"

Suggested fix:
eval_num_suffix() in mysys/my_getopt.c has the code to handle these suffixes, but it is static to that file.
