Description:
Currently there is no way to test the behavior of the mysql_change_user

Introduce a change_user command.

  Bug#31608 missing mysqltest change_user command
  
  The problem is that currently there is no way to test the behavior
  of the mysql_change_user() function using the mysqltest suite because
  there is no internal command for it.
  
  The solution is to introduce a change_user command that can be used
  to test aspects of the MySQL client function mysql_change_user().

  Bug#31608 missing mysqltest change_user command
  
  Post merge fixes: close any open statement before
  the change user command and fix test case output.

Pushed into mysql-5.1-runtime

Pushed into 5.1.23-beta

Noted in 5.1.23 changelog.

mysqltest now has a change_user command to change the user for the
current connection. (It invokes the mysql_change_user() C API
function.) 

Also updated the mysqltest manual to describe the command.
